Misgav Industrial Park, Israel, March 24, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Intrusion prevention software for CompletePBX effectively seals off the IP-PBX from unauthorized access to maximize security

Xorcom, a privately-held manufacturer of IP-PBX business telephony solutions, today announced that CompleteSBC™, its new optional software component for the CompletePBX IP-PBX series, is now shipping. CompleteSBC is a Session Border Controller (SBC) that provides security via intrusion prevention for the IP-PBX, acting as a “SIP firewall” for access control and Denial of Service (DoS).

"As hackers become increasingly sophisticated in their attempts at toll fraud and registration attacks on Internet-based telephony, we decided to provide a tool that effectively seals off the IP-PBX. The proactive approach of the CompleteSBC, with its built-in rules and stringent access privileges, provides security and peace of mind to the telco carrier and enterprise alike."

Eran Gal, CEO & Co-founder, Xorcom Ltd.

In addition, CompleteSBC provides NAT traversal, smart routing, and messages repair to solve interoperability problems. It is also a B2BUA server that allows implementation of additional applications, e.g.: SIP UDP/TCP/TLS gateway. The intuitive GUI interface enables easy configuration of its many powerful features.
