This is exactly the area I've been looking at and trying to raise
recently. I've worked on an internal methodology for my employers and
presented an overview of this publicly earlier this year. Although my
efforts were not from a forensics stance, more focused on security
assessment.

I'd be very interested to see anyone's ideas on the topic and would
offer to lead or participate in a VOIPSA effort along these lines.
