Under FCC rules, a $4.6 billion bid would ensure the creation of a broadband network "open" to any devices or application.

Top Five VoIP IP Telephony Vulnerabilities According To Sipera Viper Lab
2007-12-12 22:29:00
Sipera VIPER Lab determined the Top 5 VoIP Vulnerabilities for 2007 were:1) Remote eavesdropping of VoIP phone calls, a practice that is exponentially easier in VoIP than with traditional PSTN telephone networks, and which represents a major breach of enterprise communications and security.2) VoIP Hopping, one of the enablers of remote eavesdropping, but more critically compromises VLANs, that were previously trusted as providing VoIP security, by enabling a PC to mimic an IP phone so hackers can access VoIP systems.3) Vishing, the practice of VoIP phishing, which enables hackers to spoof caller ID and present a fraudulent phone identity, causing some consumers to share sensitive, personal information, such as credit card numbers, with hackers masquerading as banking representatives.4) Toll fraud, which allows unauthorized users to access enterprise VoIP networks and make calls, increasing VoIP costs and traffic.
