With the appearance of multimedia applications and the upcoming age of Voice over IP (VoIP), Voice setup and resources control protocols such as SIP and H.323 over the Internet are becoming increasingly attractive applications. In the last few years as a real competitor in traditional telephony services (PSTN), SIP has gained much attention when compared with H.323. SIP works at presentation an...

This document specifies a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) profile of Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) as well as a SAML SIP binding. The defined SIP SAML Profile composes with the mechanisms defined in the SIP Identity specification and satisfy requirements presented in "Trait-based Authorization Requirements for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)". Tschofenig, et al. Expires Sept...

Recent collapses of SIP servers in the carrier networks indicates two potential problems of SIP: (1) the current SIP design does not easily scale up to large network sizes, and (2) the built-in SIP overload control mechanism cannot handle overload conditions effectively. In order to help carriers prevent widespread SIP network failure effectively, this chapter presents a systematic investigatio...

StratoSIP (“SIP at a very high level”) is a domainspecific language for programming SIP applications. This manual documents Version 1.0 of StratoSIP. The runtime environment for a StratoSIP program is a SIP Servlet container [6]. StratoSIP is compiled into ECharts for SIP Servlets (E4SS) [3]; E4SS is, in turn, compiled into Java. StratoSIP is designed to enable all application programmers, even...

Future telephony and multimedia systems will use the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for signaling purposes. SIP is a text-based protocol that imposes challenges for an efficient message processing. The ability of SIP entities to process SIP messages quickly is crucial for the performance of these networks, which often have strict timing requirements, e. g., to keep the call setup delays smal...

session initiation protocol (sip) is the main signaling protocol of next generation networks (ngn). sip based applications are usually deployed over the internet, for which their text-based nature and internal stateful operation make them vulnerable to different types of attacks. the real‑time functionality of sip based applications make their related security systems more complex. on the other...

The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) has been used widely for Voice over IP (VoIP) service because of its potential advantages, economical efficiency and call setup simplicity. However, SIP-based VoIP service basically has two main security issues, malformed SIP message attack and SIP flooding attack. In this paper, we propose a novel mechanism for SIP-based VoIP system utilizing rule matching...
