VoIP security

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) security refers to measures taken to protect voice communications that occur over the internet. Unlike traditional phone systems, VoIP uses data packets to transmit calls, making it vulnerable to threats like eavesdropping, hacking, and denial-of-service attacks. To enhance security, techniques such as encryption, secure passwords, and firewalls are employed. These help ensure that conversations remain private and that the service is reliable. By addressing these vulnerabilities, users can enjoy the benefits of VoIP technology while minimizing risks associated with their communication.
