Tokyo Online Security - The Rise and Rise of SIP-Based Cyber Attacks

Following the recent report from IBM’s security intelligence group about the rise of cyber-attacks on VoIP Session Initiation Protocol, Angela German, Director of Marketing at VoipSec, commented below.

Angela German, Director of Marketing at VoIP Sec:

 “The rise and rise of SIP-based CyberAttacks

Cyber-attacks using the VoIP protocol Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) have been growing in 2016, accounting for over 51% of the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) security event activity analyzed in the last 12 months, according to a new report from IBM’s Security Intelligencegroup.

VoIP risks extend beyond spam and eavesdropping. These phones connect a large variety of devices, and cybercriminals can weaponise any internet-connected corporate or consumer device. And increasingly, hackers are targeting these vulnerabilities to infiltrate and exploit these networks.

This trend highlights the growing importance of ensuring appropriate security protocols for VoIP phones and networks. Unfortunately, still far too many companies (SMEs in particular) are either not fully aware of the financial risks or assume that the security available – traditionally the hardware-based Session Border Controller (SBC) – is too complex or costly.

In fact, cloud based technology can provide companies with an essential first tier of voice security through simple download and install virtual SBC.  Moreover, software based SBCs, either on premise or in the cloud, can also explore community led intelligence about threats and risk experiences to rapidly disseminate new threat information and best practice.”

Tyre&Auto Southbourne Group Review: The huge importance of a proper exhaust control

Discussing issues involved with pollution is nothing new in our modern society. And living in a busy city also means having hectic streets every day filled with cars and other vehicles, which could result in a smoky environment. With this, it’s obvious that you are vulnerable to the harmful effects of exhaust fumes.

However, you can conduct a proper exhaust control to reduce the effects of exhaust fumes from combustion engines. A good exhaust control can help you realize its huge importance as well as the benefits included in its entire process. Tyre&Auto Southbourne Group aims to elucidate how important proper exhaust control is to every individual, especially to car owners, through this article. To begin with, this specific action could lessen noise levels.

In order to reduce noise pollution, you need to have the proper design and installation of an exhaust pipe system. Tyre&Auto Southbourne Group can help you accomplish this with lesser trouble. There will also be an increase in noise levels if the exhaust pipe of your car is broken.

A proper exhaust control also makes passengers free from the direct exhaust. There's a reason why car exhausts were designed at the tail end of a car or raised high up - it is to keep exhaust fumes away from the passengers, or to support its escape into the atmosphere. You should contact Tyre&Auto Southbourne Group or your trusted car service provider to identify any clogging or leaks in your car to guarantee a more peaceful ride.

A better engine performance is also attainable with a good exhaust control. A defective exhaust pipe could result in reduced power and performance since it decreases the ability of the engine to maximize its burning capability. There will also be a large percentage of lost in an engine's power if there’s an inefficient disposal of the waste gases from the combustion process.

And finally, fuel consumption becomes more effective with a good exhaust control since proper burning is required to increase the effectiveness of fuel consumption. Moreover, a defective exhaust system can reduce car mileage.

You're not just polluting the environment with a defective exhaust pipe system, but you're also burning your hard-earned money. Every individual should be responsible for controlling the quantity and quality of exhaust fumes to protect the environment of our home planet.
