چکیده

This thesis addresses the development of an end-to-end secure Voice over IP (VoIP) conference system. We are particularly interested in challenges associated with deploying such a system in ad-hoc networks containing low bandwidth and/or high latency data links. End-to-end security is handled by the decentralized Public Key Group Encryption library (PKGE) developed at Lincoln Laboratory; PKGE allows real-time keying of conference users without an on-line central keying authority. We present a system design and its prototype implementation in accordance with a set of appropriate design goals. The final product demonstrates the feasibility of using PKGE in the demanding conditions of VoIP conferencing. The system development sheds light on a number of issues and engineering challenges that ultimately affect call quality, functionality, security, and usability, motivating our recommendations for the next generation system.

Securing Voice over Internet Protocol ( Ip ) Networks

Voice over IP (VOIP) the transmis­ sion of voice over traditional packetswitched IP networks is one of the hottest trends in telecommunications. As with any new technology, VOIP introduces both opportunities and security challenges. Lower cost and greater flexibility are among the prom­ ises of VOIP for the enterprise, but security administrators will face signif­ icant issues. Administrators m...

Voice Conferencing over IP Networks

Traditional telephone conferencing has been accomplished by way of a centralized conference bridge. An Internet Protocol (IP)-based conference bridge is subject to speech distortions and substantial computational demands due to the tandem arrangement of high compression speech codecs. Decentralized architectures avoid the speech distortions and delay, but lack strong control and have a key depe...
