[VOIPSEC] ComputerWorld.au: "Enterprises must avoid IP telephony for teleworkers or face attack" - and my response

[dan_york at Mitel.com]

VOIPSEC readers,

FYI, ComputerWorld in Australia came out today with the article 
"Enterprises must avoid IP telephony for teleworkers or face attack" found 
at:

  http://www.computerworld.com.au/index.php/id;350011373

Since I use (secure) teleworker phones every day, I was rather annoyed at 
their headline and wrote this response (since I couldn't comment at 
ComputerWorld.au):

 
http://voipsa.org/blog/2007/03/05/why-computerworldau-is-dead-wrong-about-enterprises-must-avoid-ip-telephony-for-teleworkers-or-face-attack/

As you would expect, I will naturally talk about this on this week's Blue 
Box podcast when Jonathan and I record it later this week.

Given that ComputerWorld.au is an IDG property, I would expect that this 
article might show up on other IDG websites over the next while.  (PC 
World, Linux World, Computer World, InfoWorld, NetworkWorld, CIO, CSO, 
etc.)

Regards,
Dan
