What is Network Security?
• Network Security
• Consists of the provisions and policies
adopted by a network administrator to
prevent and monitor unauthorized access,
misuse, modification, or denial of a
computer network and network-accessible
resources.
• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_security
• Should Security apply to Voice over IP?
• YES! ABSOLUTELY!
What is Network Security?
• Why should Security apply to VoIP?
• VoIP security involves the authorization of
access to Voice applications in a network
• Authenticating information that allows voice
access to Call Control and UC Applications
• VoIP Security covers a variety of computer
networks, both public and private, that are
used in everyday jobs conducting
transactions and communications among
businesses, government agencies and
individuals.
What is Network Security?
• Why should Security apply to VoIP? (con’t)
• VoIP can be private, such as within a
company, and others which might be open
to public access.
• VoIP security is involved in organizations,
enterprises, and other types of institutions. It
does as its title explains: It secures the
Voice Network, as well as protecting and
overseeing operations being done.
What is Network Security?
• Why is VoIP Security Important?
• End of Geography
• IP Protocol is an OPEN network system, no
longer need to be physically present
• Any IP Address can connect with any other IP
Address.
• Prevent Fraudulent Activities
• Identify Theft, Toll Fraud, Spoofing, Misuse,
SPAM, SPIT, Vishing, Eavesdropping, Data
Mining, Reconnaissance
• Prevent Disruption of Service
• Denial of Service, Fuzzing
Trusted and Untrusted
• Policies in Defining Network Security Zones
• A network zone describes the trust level of a
network connection.
• Trusted Network Security Zone
• Fully trusted connections. All incoming
traffic is allowed.
• Untrusted Network Security Zone
• Fully untrusted connections. No incoming
traffic is allowed. Administrator defines the
services/policies

Comparing SBCs with Firewalls
• Summary
• VoIP and UC are being deployed at an growing rate
• IP networks provide a highly effective means for
enterprises and contact centers to communicate
• The IP communications network is now a businesscritical resource
• IP-based enterprise communications networks,
services and applications must be secured.
• For successful VoIP/ UC deployments the
enterprise must:
• Maximize communication service and
interoperability
• Assure service availability and quality levels
• Control costs
Comparing SBCs with Firewalls
• Firewalls with SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway)
• Ubiquitous in today’s IP networks—protect IP data
networks, servers and applications against a variety
of threats through stateful inspection and filtering at
layers 3 and 4 of the OSI model.
• To enable basic VoIP connectivity through the
firewall, some firewalls add SIP ALGs that translate
embedded SIP addresses
• allows the firewall to maintain a single end-toend SIP session between endpoints residing on
either side of the firewall.
Comparing SBCs with Firewalls
• Session Border Controllers (SBC)
• SBC’s implement a SIP back-to-back user agent
(B2BUA) as defined in IETF RFC 3261. A B2BUA
divides each SIP session into two distinct segments.
• In doing so, the SBC is able to completely and
effectively controls SIP sessions, as well as the
associated media flows, in ways that SIP ALGs
cannot. This unique capability gives SBCs a clear
edge in their ability to securely deliver reliable, highquality IP-based interactive communications.
Comparing SBCs with Firewalls
• How It Works
• Firewall with SIP ALG
• Maintains single SIP session through Firewall
• Fully state-aware at layer 3 and 4
• Only inspects/modifies SIP, SDP addresses
• Unable to terminate, initiate, re-initiate or respond to
SIP signaling messages
• Only supports static ACLs and policies
Comparing SBC with Firewall
• How It Works
• Session Border Controllers (SBC)
• Implements SIP B2BUA for complete control
• Fully state-aware at layers 2-7
• Inspects/modifies all SIP, SDP header info
• Can terminate, initiate, re-initiate & respond to SIP
signaling messages
• Supports static and dynamic ACLs and policies
Security with SBC
• Session Border Controllers uniquely provide all
controls required for delivering trusted, reliable and
high-quality IP interactive communications:
• Security: IP PBX and UC server DoS/DDoS attack
protection, SBC self-protection
• Communications reach maximization: IP PBX
and UC protocol interworking, remote NAT traversal
• SLA assurance: IP PBX & UC server session
admission and overload control, data center
disaster recovery, remote site survivability, Call
Admission Control, SBC high-availability operation
• Data Firewalls with application layer gateways
(FW/ALG) are effective in securing data-oriented
application infrastructure (PCs, servers).
Successful Delivery of VoIP
 Requirements for the successful delivery of enterprise
and contact center VoIP/UC services and applications
 SBC/FW DoS/DDoS Self-Protection
 VoIP Theft of Service
 IP PBX & UC SIP Protocol Interoperability
 IP PBX/UC Server Session Admission & Overload
Control
 Remote Site NAT Traversal
 High Availability VoIP Operations
 Data Center Disaster Recovery
 Remote Site Survivability using SBC/FW
 Call Admission Control
Success Combined
 Completely Ubiquitous Voice & Data Security
SIP Security is Better
 Why is SIP Security Better than PSTN?
 Encryption
 Transport Layer Security (TLS) – Encryption of
SIP Signaling
SIP Security is Better
 Why is SIP Security Better than PSTN?
 Encryption
 Secure RTP (SRTP) – Encryption of Media
Common SIP Attacks
 Intrusion of Services (or Theft of Service)
 Devices attempting Register with a IP-PBX in an attempt to
look like an IP-PBX extension and gain IP-PBX services
 SPIT (SPAM over Internet Telephony)
 Toll Fraud
 A form of an Intrusion of Service, where malicious attempts to
send INVITEs to an IP-PBX to gain access to PSTN Gateways
and SIP Trunking to call the PSTN
 Denial of Service
 INVITE (or any SIP Request) Flood in an attempt to slow
services or disrupt services
 Or any UDP or TCP traffic directed at a SIP Service on SIP
Ports
 Indirect Security Breaches
Common SIP Attacks
 What is Intrusion of Service?
 A Third Party attempting to defraud either the
Enterprise or the Carrier
 Devices attempting “Spoof” a Client device in an
attempt to look like an extension (or enterprise) and
gain services directly, including Toll Fraud.
Common SIP Attacks
 What is Denial of Service?
 A Third Party attack
to make a communications
resource unavailable to its
intended users
 Generally consists of the concerted efforts to
prevent SIP communications service from
functioning efficiently or at all, temporarily or
indefinitely
 One common method of attack involves saturating
the target (victim) IP-PBX with external
communications requests, such that it cannot
respond to legitimate traffic, or responds so slowly
as to be rendered effectively unavailable
Common SIP Attacks
 Prevention of SIP Attacks
 Layered Security
 Do Not to subject “Mission Critical” Voice
applications to SIP Attacks
