There
are three Key threats to Voice over IP (VoIP) services:
- Exploitation
of VoIP Product Vulnerabilities Like any technology,
VoIP products also suffer vulnerabilities that need
to be addressed.
-
Specific Denial of Service (DoS) Denial of service
threats that are specific to the various VoIP protocols
or the particular attributes of the VoIP application.
-
General DoS General denial of service threats
that can affect VoIP service threats that can affect
VoIP services but are not targeted specifically at
VoIP protocols.
The
impacts of these threats vary. The main reason for deploying
VoIP is cost savings but if an exploited VoIP gateway
is being used for long distance calls, how big is that
saving? Or if a DoS attack prevents calls from being
made, or reduces quality to an unacceptable level, what
cost is there to the business?
