ITSPA updated recommendations for provisioning security

 

 

ITSPA has recently released a new guidance paper surrounding remote provisioning of phones and other SIP devices. This new document shares best common practices among ITSPA members to help ensure their provisioning infrastructure is secure.

ITSPA Chair Eli Katz stated

This is an excellent update to the existing guidance and should be considered a starting point rather than a complete solution. This is just a part of ITSPA’s ongoing work in tackling cyber-crime and fraud as well as driving up best practice within the membership. We must ensure the industry is one step ahead in the security battle.

ITSPA has recently launched a new best practice paper ‘Recommendations for secure deployment of an IP-PBX’ (Version 3). This new document outlines configuration measures that should be implemented on an IP-PBX installed in a customer’s premises as well as the support that service providers can give to assist in the identification and avoidance of attacks.

The update forms part of ITSPA’s Best Current Practice (BCP) documents. This document follows an in-depth collaboration with members, including a range of service providers, security experts and vendors and forms part of ITSPA’s stream of work to ensure that the industry follow best practice to tackle telecommunications fraud.
