What is an SBC and How Does an SBC VoIP Firewall Enhance Security?
#1
A Session Border Controller (SBC) is a network device primarily used to manage and secure real-time communications like voice and video calls in VoIP (Voice over IP) systems. It sits at the border of the network and acts as a gatekeeper between different networks, ensuring proper flow and security of sessions.

The SBC VoIP Firewall is a crucial security feature embedded in SBCs. It helps protect the VoIP infrastructure from various types of threats such as Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, eavesdropping, and fraud. By inspecting and filtering the traffic passing through it, the SBC VoIP Firewall ensures that only legitimate traffic is allowed to enter or exit the network. It also helps in securing sensitive data and maintaining call quality by managing the signaling and media traffic securely.

In addition, SBCs with VoIP Firewall functionalities provide encryption, prevent toll fraud, and support regulatory compliance, making them essential for businesses that rely on VoIP technology for communication.
