Are you using an SBC to protect your phone system? One question we hear from our customers frequently is âIs an SBC necessary?â âWhat if I have firewalls already?â In this monthâs Patton webinar, we explained in detail why an SBC is needed and how to take advantage of Pattonâs latest Mini eSBC SN500. If you missed our webinar, donât miss out on this quick webinar recap!
You may think having a firewall is enough to protect your communication system; the fact is, firewalls are not optimized for VoIP systems and there are shortfalls. Overall, firewalls:
Are not optimized for data traffic
Donât have enough performance for small voice packets
Donât support and recognize SIP and RTP traffic
Donât prevent eavesdropping
Donât protect you from hackers who commit tool fraud by hijacking a device and placing unauthorized long-distance calls.
On the other hand, an eSBC can defend against:
Toll fraud
Back-to-back user agent
Advanced call routing security
Denial of service
Trusted peer – whitelist
SIP packet flooding prevention
Eavesdropping – encryption (TLS/SRTP)
Truly converged voice and data security
Now letâs look at how Pattonâs latest solution, SN500, can do for your business:
Pattonâs SN500 Mini eSBC Overview
