Phil Zimmermann (the creator of PGP) gave a great talk on VoIP security at last week's O'Reilly Emerging Telephony Conference. I unfortunately missed part of the talk, so didn't blog it. Happily, I've just listened to the entirety of Phil's talk courtesy of Dan York, the producer and co-host of Blue Box, the VoIP Security Podcast. But you don't need me to tell you about it...you too can download Zimmermann's talk here. It's very worth the 15 minutes.
Zimmerman talked about the issues of securing VoIP calls, and teased us with small details of the upcoming source code release for Zfone (not Z Phone), his new secure phone technology that sits in the IT stack of your favorite VoIP client. This beta release will be made publicly available at PGP Corporation in early March, under an open source license.
