BorderWare Showcases VoIP Security Solution at Fall VON 2005 Conference and Expo; Andrew Graydon, Chief Technology Officer to Present on Implementing VoIP Firewalls.

TORONTO -- BorderWare Technologies Inc., the leading provider of messaging security solutions, will showcase SIPassure, a turn-key security platform for securing real-time communications including voice over IP (VoIP) at Fall VON 2005 Conference & Expo in Boston, September 19-22. In booth #1427, BorderWare will be demonstrating how SIPassure addresses VoIP security threats and provides an added layer of security at the application level. SIPassure also enhances the security of existing SIP Proxy Servers, IP-PBX's, and real-time communications systems from market leaders including Cisco Call Manager, Microsoft Live Communications Server (LCS) 2005, 3Com VCX, Marconi ViPr, Avaya, Nortel and open-source vendors such as Asterisk.. In addition, BorderWare's Andrew Graydon, chief technology officer will participate in the panel "Implementing VoIP-Friendly Firewalls" on Tuesday, September 20, 2005, 3:30pm - 4:45pm Eastern Standard Time.

Initially aimed at the emerging VoIP (Internet telephony) market, BorderWare's SIPassure is a SIP security platform that manages and protects the flow of VoIP-specific SIP communications. It enables enterprises and service providers to fully realize the business benefits of deploying VoIP solutions such as reducing long distance costs, utilizing presence-based applications (i.e. find me, follow me) and unified messaging. At the BorderWare booth, VON attendees will learn how SIPassure protects against VOIP security threats such as voicemail spam, impersonation, session eavesdropping, hijacking and redirection.

"As VoIP becomes an increasingly integral element of an organizations' communications, enterprises must address the security limitations of SIP and begin developing a security strategy that goes beyond messaging to include real-time communications," said Graydon. "The VON conference is the ideal venue for us to showcase how SIPassure can meet this requirement and provide attendees with expert advice on how this capability should be part of a broader platform-based messaging security strategy that addresses both data and voice applications."

Graydon, an industry expert on VoIP security and chair of the Security Requirements committee within VOIPSA, the industry's first VoIP Security Alliance, is participating in a panel discussion on implementing VOIP firewalls where he will be discussing VoIP misconceptions and key factors to consider when selecting a solution.

As one of the leading companies in SIP security, BorderWare will have a significant presence at VON. In addition to its booth, presentations and speaking session, the company plans to conduct a contest for a BMW Mini Cooper convertible which will be displayed on the show floor. Ballots and contest rules will be available at the BorderWare booth #1427.
