SIP_Security_white_paper_Ahot!

Person-to-person realtime IP communications, like presence, VoIP and video applications, offer clear benefits for the enterprise as time- and money-savers. Unified functionality is now available, where all of the above are integrated into one streamlined application and interconnect with other networks. This creates a very important business tool and usage is increasing.
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) has emerged as the protocol that will fuel this development. Its simplicity and the fact that it is based on Internet standards give SIP clear advantages over older protocols. Analysts predict that SIP will dominate and the evidence given by actual deployments among service providers and equipment vendors further support that prediction.
This white paper describes the security issues associated with SIP, and how to address them within enterprise domains.

SIP Server Technical Overview (Radvision)hot!
- 21.07.2004
- With the advance of SIP, server logic has become increasingly complex. SIP Servers need to deal with varying network topologies (such as public Internet networks, cellular networks, broadband residential networks), complex routing policies, security and SIP extensions. SIP Servers often need to handle high message/transaction rates and yield real-time performance and scalability, high throughput, and low delay. This chapter discusses the protocol aspects of SIP Server behavior and the usage of the RADVISION SIP Server Platform to address the challenges of effective SIP Server development

SIP: Protocol Overview (Radvision)hot!
- 20.02.2004

The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a signaling protocol for initiating, managing and terminating voice and video sessions across packet networks. SIP sessions involve one or more participants and can use unicast or multicast communication. Borrowing from ubiquitous Internet protocols, such as HTTP and SMTP, SIP is text-encoded and highly extensible. SIP may be extended to accommodate features and services such as call control services, mobility, interoperability with existing telephony systems, and more.
SIP is being developed by the SIP Working Group, within the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The protocol is published as IETF RFC 2543 and currently has the status of a proposed standard.
This White Paper describes the key constituents of SIP.

November, 2003
Abstract: SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is a standard protocol that covers a wide variety of applications. The document explains why SIP is a powerful real-time collaboration protocol. SIP is currently being adopted by many companies and is evolving more rapidly than any other existing real-time collaboration protocol. This document provides background information on SIP and touches the wide variety of applications whose implementation is either made easier or made possible, via SIP. This document concludes with a set of questions and answers on SIP.

Introduction
The purpose of this document is to provide an overview of SIP â_" Session Initiation Protocol within the enterprise.
This paper summarizes where SIP has come from, how it works, and what makes it such a useful enabling protocol. It then describes how SIP is used in applications including telephony, conferencing and messaging, back office integration and how it is being extended to provide innovative services and accommodate the requirements of a real time IP communication.
From an application point of view SIP is continuing to develop rapidly and is innovative as we continue to envision all of its uses for home and business. This white paper is aimed at people who want to understand the concepts and drives behind SIP adoption and how it is evolving to support new enterprise business applications.

Open Source IP Communicationshot!
- 12.05.2005
-
SIPXchange, the industryâ_Ts first open source Enterprise communications suite, combines the cost savings of voice-over-IP technology with the quality and adaptability of open source software created by a community of developers; itâ_Ts a solution that can improve a business exponentially. Using an open source solution, companies are no longer forced to pay licensing fees for software or premiums for proprietary hardware and software.
While companies will pay less for licensing, they will continue to receive the Enterprise-grade support they get from traditional vendors, including software additions, service level agreements, and additional services such as training. If there is a failure, companies will have the ability to call and resolve the issue. Guaranteed service contracts will make open source the low risk solution for wide adoption in an Enterprise environment.

Support for Session Initiation Protocol, or SIP, is essential in todayâ_Ts enterprise communications environment. With the standardization of SIP as the Internet protocol for applications such as VoIP, instant messaging and IP telephony, businesses are eager to adapt their existing hardware to accept SIP. However, far too many companies have made substantial investments into legacy firewall technologies that are not capable of supporting this type of communication. In addition, enterprises are reluctant to touch existing security infrastructure for fear of creating security breaches.
The award-winning Ingate SIParator® addresses these issues by offering the introduction of a SIP-capable communications infrastructure while preserving the investment made in legacy firewalls.
