Actually this is not a vulnerability in the product itself, but if you use Asterisk or one of its derivatives such as TrixBox, you should review your SIP and IAX secrets to make sure they are not the same as your extension numbers. As reported by Kerry Garrison on his blog: There are some new scripts...

I spent a fair chunk of today with Peter Gradwell and some of his colleagues from Gradwell.com. They were celebrating the company’s 10th anniversary and were kind enough to invite some of their customers to lunch in Cardiff Bay. We chose Gradwell.com as our preferred supplier of digital trunks for our...

I was fortunate to attend a Microsoft event in London today on the topic of Software plus Services, at which the keynote speaker was none other than Microsoft CEO Mr. Steve Ballmer. He was not what I expected - I was pleasantly surprised. He comes across as genuine but direct and to the point, humourous...

Email disclaimers are one of my pet hates. They are, on the whole, rather ill considered . Here’s a fairly typical one that I received today in a marketing email: This Email any attachment may contain information which is confidential. If you are not the addressee, any disclosure, reproduction...

New broadband installation is complete but was not without some pain. That's not really surprising as domestic providers aren't really geared up for supplying businesses. The line was swapped over by about 10am and I promptly got a text message to inform me that I could connect my new "Be...

TiGra Networks is having a broadband upgrade this week so we'll be offline for perhaps a day while that happens. We'll be completely off the air for a while and there will be a bit of disruption while we install the new equipment and update our DNS records and stuff like that, so if you visit...

I attended a seminar a few days ago that explored current and emerging uses of technology and communications in business. The event was hosted by Rhondda Cynon Taff Business Club .

SanDisk is now up to 72Gb with the SSD SATA 5000 - directly equivalent to what many servers have in the form of SAS or SCSI drives, which come in 74Gb capacity. However, imagine how many of these little cards (5mm thick x 1.8 inches wide) you can fit into the space of a standard 3.5" hard drive...

I've spent most of today at the London Hilton attending Microsoft's partner pre-launch for servers & tools. Grace and I were lucky enough to get a front row seat just 6ft away from Bill Gates as he gave the keynote speech and held a Q&A session with Scott Dodds. I don't usually go...
