Cisco’s CallManager exposes VoIP vulnerability
Cisco Systems’ disclosure regarding security alerts and patches for CallManager has exposed VoIP vulnerability as a software application. Although the threats posed are miniscule as compared to blocking of websites and stealing customer data still it cannot be ignored. Since Cisco is the market leader it is likely going to be the prime target of VoIP hackers. Another threat lies in the inexperience of IT staff which might not be having much knowledge about security aspects of the network. With the use of VoIP expected to increase over the years the need to reduce the threats posed to it is very important.
