Slides: Securing Communications Systems

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

At the SpeechTEK conference last week in New York City, I gave a talk on “Securing Communications“. The organizers had asked me to touch on the topics I covered in my recent book on Unified Communications security, so I organized the slides in that fashion:



More videos and links coming out of SpeechTEK can be found on our SpeechTEK event page. And if you have any questions about my presentation, feel free to contact me as I’m always glad to talk about security.

Video: Loop from Voxeo Booth at SpeechTEK showing Prophecy 10, VoiceObjects On-Demand and Text Messaging

Friday, August 6th, 2010

As several people have asked about what the video looked like that was running in the back of our SpeechTEK booth, we uploaded the video loop to YouTube.  Note that it is silent, so no, there isn’t a problem with your speakers.  Enjoy…

The video was produced by our friends over at R3M1X3D with direction on our end provided by our Kim Martin.

Voxeo Speaks #004 – Dan York – Securing Cloud Telephony

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Securing Cloud Telephony Dan York, CISSP, Director of Conversations ? Voxeo As voice and self-service applications move increasingly into the cloud and to IP communications, what do you need to be concerned about with regard to the security of hosted solutions? If you grow to trust the cloud, how can you be sure it will be there for you? What protections can you put in place? What backup plans can you establish? What questions should you ask potential hosted/cloud vendors? In this session, security professional Dan York will walk you through the basic risk areas of voice-over-IP security, explain how those relate to both hosted and hybrid configurations and leave you with a concrete list of questions to consider in considering hosted/cloud options. Slides available here: http://www.slideshare.net/voxeo/speechtek-2009-securing-cloud-telephony-aug2009

Want to know what Voxeo announced and demo’d at SpeechTEK 2009? See our new Events page…

Friday, August 28th, 2009

SpeechTEK.com.jpgWould you like to catch up with what we announced at SpeechTEK? Want to see some photos of the event or some videos of our booth? Want to know what sessions Voxeo folks spoke at? Or look at the slides from the talks? Want to learn about our very cool SpeechTEK411 multichannel demo?

All that and more is possible from the SpeechTEK 2009 page in our new Events section of the site. You can get there very simply:

http://blogs.voxeo.com/events/speechtek2009/

You can see links from that page over to our resources page, to a page about the Nugram integration with VoiceObjects, and much more.

From now on, we’re planning to create new pages for each of the events that we will be attending. The pages will serve two purposes:

  • Before the event, the page will have information about the sessions we will be at, what we are doing at the show, etc.
  • After the event, we will use it as a place to link to presentations we gave at the event, photos we’ve taken, etc.

We’re just starting to build out the section, so we don’t have information up yet about our talks at, for instance, Astricon or eComm Europe…. but we will soon.

Please do let us know what you think of this section. Is there specific information you’d like us to include that we don’t yet? How else can we help you connect with us at events?

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

At SpeechTEK this week down in New York City, Rich Tehrani of TMCnet stopped by our booth, pulled out his iPhone 3GS, and asked me to say a few words…. naturally, I did. :-) Rich subsequently blogged about the interview and posted it to his TMC site:

And yes, as Rich indicates, I’ll be out at ITEXPO next week in LA…
