Solicitation

Have you ever used any voice over IP service from companies such as Skype, Vonage, Yahoo? Recent years has witnessed a tremendous surge on this cool technology. However, despite their low charge (sometimes even free), do you know there are lots of security concerns associated with this business? Yes, the media has already given the public concern some coverage, for example, NewScientist had this article.

On the coming Thursday (06-26) Paul and Rachel are leading a discussion focusing on a potential tapping technique on VOIP and possible countermeasures. It is a latest Security and Privacy paper, which is available from this link.

The seminar is open to anyone who is interested in the topic. As always, free lunch (French bread, cakes, donuts, and tomatoes) will be provided.

The presentation slides are available from here. (You need OpenOffice to open the file.)
