[VOIPSEC] Phone Parrot: The most obnoxious IVR application ever written (for Asterisk)

[Dan_York at mitel.com]

Diana,

I believe Shawn was merely pointing out the existence of the tool and the potential security ramifications. To my knowledge, he has no connection with the actual project. 

Personally, I welcome notes like this when someone comes across some new tool that has potential VoIP security impact. There certainly are enough new tools cropping up on a regular basis.

My 2 cents,
Dan

Hello,

Seems that VoIPSA has become a spam list.
