T-Mobile Home VoIP Service Is Imminent

2008-06-30T23:42:00.000-07:00

Those of you who follow this closely (which I'm guessing is most of you; otherwise, what are you doing on this site?) have heard about T-Mobile USA Inc.'s push to offer wireless VoIP at home. The service is almost here; on July 2, you'll be able to use a wireless handset at home to make VoIP calls. It'll cost $10 per month, which is about half of the price of your run-of-the-mill VoIP vendor or cable company. As one analyst noted, $10 per month is pretty much free. The catch: You need to be a T-Mobile cell customer. The lesson: When it comes to pricing, the tech market is an inevitable race to the bottom. Read more about T-Mobile's new service here.

The Free edition of Acunetix Cross Site Scripting Security Scanner reaches 50,000 downloads in only 20 weeks

2008-02-01T00:25:00.000-08:00

Businesses have been quick to identify the benefits of protecting their websites from the growing threat of Cross Site Scripting vulnerabilities

London, UK – 25 January 2008 – Acunetix announced today that the Free Edition of its web vulnerability scanner has been downloaded more than 50,000 times since its launch in early September 2007. Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner (WVS) allows companies to test for cross site scripting vulnerabilities in their websites without incurring any costs.

Sarah Tabone, Sales & Operations Manager at Acunetix said, “We are delighted to see that the free edition of our product has been so well received in such a short period of time. Businesses are starting to recognize the danger their web sites are under and are using the free edition of Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner (WVS) to protect them.

“The free XSS scanner is giving security officers around the world access to a specialized cross site scanning tool that allows them to evaluate their web sites for the threat of cross site scripting.”

Hackers use Cross Site Scripting (XSS) to embed malicious scripts into a vulnerable dynamic page to deceive the user, executing the script on his/her machine to collect data. The use of XSS can compromise valuable private information, manipulate or steal cookies, create requests that can be taken for those of a valid user, or execute malicious code on the end-user systems. The data is typically formatted as a hyperlink with malicious content that is then distributed on the internet. Cross site scripting vulnerabilities are highly dangerous and there has been a serious increase in the number of the attacks in recent years.

The Free Edition of Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner is available at: http://www.acunetix.com/cross-site-scripting/scanner.htm.

About Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner

Around the Blogosphere… the Hump Day Edition

Damon from the Voice Over IP Weblog starts us off today with a look back on 2007 and, more importantly perhaps, how his opinions have changed over the course of the year. Although having an admitted hate-hate relationship with Skype, his tune has changed, as have his thoughts on Jangl. Will certainly be interesting to see what ‘08 brings.

Tom Keating from the VoIP & Gadgets Blog leaves the VoIP realm long enough for a slight rail against changes afoot at DirecTV. Although I’m a huge fan of warp-speed fast-forwarding through commercials, I haven’t noticed this little “helpful” quirk… let’s hope it stays that way.

Miami, Florida — 20 December 2007 — 3CX today announced it will have the latest version of its IP PBX for Windows, 3CX Phone System, on display at TMC’s INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO East 2008 (booth #327), from January 23 to 25, 2008 at the Miami Beach Convention Center in Miami, Florida (www.itexpo.com).

INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO is the world’s largest and best-attended IP Communications trade show. Last year’s East coast event, held in South Florida in January, drew over 7,000 buyers and sellers of IP Communications products and services. The upcoming show in January will be the 17th INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO, and TMC projects total attendance to exceed 7,500.

“3CX participation at INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO exemplifies why this show is widely recognized as the #1 venue where service providers, enterprises, government agencies, developers and resellers gather to learn about the benefits inherent in IP Communications products and services,” said Rich Tehrani, TMC President. “The evolution in this industry has been monumental and it still continues to grow. We are proud to have 3CX and 3CX Phone System for Windows as a key part of this year’s program.”

3CX Phone System for Windows is an award-winning software-based IP PBX that replaces traditional proprietary hardware PBX. It is entirely SIP-standard based, and therefore interoperates with most popular SIP phones, SIP VoIP Gateways and SIP VoIP providers. It frees businesses from the shackle of hardware-based proprietary phone systems and is very easy to manage by system administrators as it integrates well with Windows Network infrastructure.

3CX Phone System for Windows won a “Best of Show” Award at Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC®)’s INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference and EXPO West 2007, which took place in September 2007.

“We are excited to be participating as exhibitors at INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO as this is a great opportunity for us to promote our innovative product.

Junction Networks Hosted VoIP Eliminates Extension Costs

2007-11-13T01:16:00.000-08:00

Small-business service charges by usage, not number of phones connected.

Robert Poe on November 8, 2007

VoIP can be ideal for small businesses. IP PBXes in a service provider's datacenter let small companies access big-company features like auto attendant, dial by name, extension dialing and the like, all without needing to buy any equipment but IP phones. The calls travel over the Internet from the datacenter to those phones, which the companies plug into their LANs. All the services typically cost is $40 to $50 per extension per month.
