[VOIPSEC] Actual Attacks

[Phil DePasquale]

Good question. I recently brought the VoIP security issues up to my boss 
and the response i got was that other companys have been doing VoIP over 
the public Internet and that my boss hasnt seen any one bring up the 
lack of security. It would be helpful to have a , as Robert called it, 
"Story Book" detailing security problems.
