    VoIP is becoming the dominant approach for telephony and this growth will continue with the upcoming introduction of 4G mobile wireless and fibre to the home networks. With the growing demand for VoIP and increased VoIP traffic, it is important to implement a system that provides interoperability between the existing telephony numbering system and the IP network device addresses. Infrastructure ENUM is one approach that may be used. This paper examines the Infrastructure ENUM implementation in Australia

    Developing Best Practices for Securing VoIP Communication for a non-profit Organization

    Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is the most widely used service around the world. The proficiency of it utilizing the web has increased awesome ubiquity in the current years. With this notoriety, there is expanding worry about the wellbeing of the system. The robbery or loss of the information being exchanged is great concern. For example, a basic problem for researchers who are developing safeguards for VoIP systems is the level of threats and other issues experienced by the non-profit organizations while implementing VoIP communication. This problem originated when non-profits received pressure from their donors not to implement VoIP communication because it will record important and valuable information of their bank account, including their bank balance, and consequently, exposing them to the public. Other dangers include safeguarding secrecy, respectability, and accessibility of the system, known as CIA. dangers. To battle these dangers, some security conventions and calculations have been produced. For example, the H.235 has been investigated, their calculations updated, and it is currently regarded as the most recent and effective system for security of the VoIP system. Another method for battling issues and concerns, and one that is the most proficient due to bigger budgets than non-profits, is VoIP being utilized in new structures and the IT work force. Fortunately, the expanding interest of VoIP has guaranteed and emphasized the requirement for more research to build up the effective security structures and countermeasures of CIA threats. This investigation examines the methods by which such security issues concerning VoIP can be set out to give an appropriate, secure and effective method for correspondence and data trade. In this postulation, the analyst will profoundly examine the relief of VoIP security issues

    Security for Decentralised Service Location - Exemplified with Real-Time Communication Session Establishment

    Decentralised Service Location, i.e. finding an application communication endpoint based on a Distributed Hash Table (DHT), is a fairly new concept. The precise security implications of this approach have not been studied in detail. More importantly, a detailed analysis regarding the applicability of existing security solutions to this concept has not been conducted. In many cases existing client-server approaches to security may not be feasible. In addition, to understand the necessity for such an analysis, it is key to acknowledge that Decentralised Service Location has some unique security requirements compared to other P2P applications such as filesharing or live streaming. This thesis concerns the security challenges for Decentralised Service Location. The goals of our work are on the one hand to precisely understand the security requirements and research challenges for Decentralised Service Location, and on the other hand to develop and evaluate corresponding security mechanisms. The thesis is organised as follows. First, fundamentals are explained and the scope of the thesis is defined. Decentralised Service Location is defined and P2PSIP is explained technically as a prototypical example. Then, a security analysis for P2PSIP is presented. Based on this security analysis, security requirements for Decentralised Service Location and the corresponding research challenges -- i.e. security concerns not suitably mitigated by existing solutions -- are derived. Second, several decentralised solutions are presented and evaluated to tackle the security challenges for Decentralised Service Location. We present decentralised algorithms to enable availability of the DHTs lookup service in the presence of adversary nodes. These algorithms are evaluated via simulation and compared to analytical bounds. Further, a cryptographic approach based on self-certifying identities is illustrated and discussed. This approach enables decentralised integrity protection of location-bindings. Finally, a decentralised approach to assess unknown identities is introduced. The approach is based on a Web-of-Trust model. It is evaluated via prototypical implementation. Finally, the thesis closes with a summary of the main contributions and a discussion of open issues
