Is Your UC Secure?

In order to provide comprehensive security, all traffic going into and out of the network should be monitored. Security applications and appliances have to scan and monitor for malware, data leakage, and other threats. With Unified Communications, the threat landscape is a little bigger and a little different. It is as important as ever to monitor traffic and maintain security, but unified communications demand higher bandwidth and QoS (Quality of Service) requirements than standard data traffic, making it an even greater challenge to secure and protect a UC environment while maintaining voice quality.
