Secure Tri Mode VoIP

Network World reports that GENERAL DYNAMICS has been awarded a contract from the NSA to produce and deliver a three mode secure VoIP phone.

At Cluecon this week, on a panel led by pal Dan York, we actually discussed the need for secure VoIP so this story is very timely.

Basically this handset will include SIP plus the SCIP and Cisco’s SCCP making the phone highly useful and eliminating the need for multiple endpoints to talk to different protocol based networks.
