EDUcast: SBC Security…Risks and Opportunities for Carriers and MSPs

Unified communications (UC) are everywhere. Every UC operation contains multiple vendors and providers that need to be managed, including now-critical SBC and SIP components. Many enterprises are using 2 to 5 different UC platforms. No single vendor or provider can perform the management end-to-end. This opens up revenue opportunities for MSPs and providers to perform the UC management for their customers whether enterprise or SMB.
