Patent number: 6760421Abstract: A system and method of telephony security for controlling and logging access between an enterprise's end-user stations and their respective circuits into the public switched telephone network (PSTN). A security policy, i.e., a set of security rules, are defined for each of the extensions, the rules specifying actions to be taken based upon at least one attribute of the call on the extension. Calls are detected and sensed on the extensions to determine attributes associated with each call. Actions are then performed on selected calls based upon their attributes in accordance with the security rules defined for those extensions.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2001Date of Patent: July 6, 2004Assignee: SecureLogix CorporationInventors: Craig Heilmann, Todd Beebe

Patent number: 6718024Abstract: A system and method for discriminating call content types for individual telephone lines at a plurality of user sites outside of a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is described. The system includes: a database containing security rules for each of a plurality of extensions, the rules specifying actions to be taken based upon a call content type of the call on the extension, wherein the call content type is determined at the user sites outside the PSTN; and a line sensor within the user sites outside the PSTN for determining the call content type of the call. The line sensor continuously checks the call content type to determine if the call content type changes.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2000Date of Patent: April 6, 2004Assignee: SecureLogix CorporationInventors: Craig Heilmann, Todd Beebe, David Buntin, Greg Schmid, Robert A.
