Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A system and method to provide secure access across the untrusted public switched telephone network is described. The system and method can be initiated by a security policy defining actions to be taken based upon at least one attribute of the call.

Abstract: A system and method for implementing a fully integrated and cooperative telecommunications firewall/scanner that can be deployed either as a standalone device, or over a large-scale distributed client-server architecture is described. In addition to providing enhanced telecommunications firewall and scanner security capabilities, the integrated telecommunications firewall/scanner provides the capability to ensure implementation of a corporate-dictated security structure, and event visibility and report consolidation requirements, across a globally-distributed enterprise, using policy-based enforcement of a Security Policy. In the most basic configuration, the integrated firewall/scanner performs continuous security access monitoring and control functions, keyword and content monitoring and control functions, and remote access authentication, initiating coordinated vulnerability assessments, as well as automatic synchronous adjustments to the Security Policy in response to the vulnerability assessment results.
