Challenge
The telecommunications industry is currently undergoing a major transformation. The convergence of IT and network operations, as well as a multitude of challenges ranging from cost pressures to increased competition, all work together to drive the implementation of VoIP communications networks for many organizations. Unfortunately, securing VoIP is more difficult than securing traditional, circuit-switched voice networks. With voice as a service on the IP network, it inherits both the advantages and the disadvantages of the IP network. For example, with VoIP, voice is vulnerable to worms, viruses, and Denial of Service (DoS) attacks - all threats that did not exist on the circuit-switched network. Furthermore, online retail operations of telecommunication companies process a large number of payment card transactions which makes the companies subject to PCI Data Security Standards.
