Found in the wild: Telecom Fraud and Security Problems 

Abstract

Last year's Security Panels at AstriCon brought examples from the audience (like: found and hacked in under 10 min. and $400k in fraud in 2 days). This year there are many new fraud attacks and audit horror stories and recommendations for you.
This session will review the security breaches of the past year as well as highlights of the most common problems found in security audits. The audience is encouraged to provide their own examples and jointly define solutions.

Asterisk Lock Down - Beyond Fail2Ban

Abstract

Fail2Ban is a wonderful tool, but it is only one of many tools out there to assist in the protection of your Asterisk server. Some of these tools are so simple, that by utilizing very simple techniques, a complete lock down can be enforced. The session will share some methods that were deployed over the course of the years 2010 and 2011 and several locations and had proved to reduce the risk of hacking and fraud tremendously.
