...Ingate is gaining traction with the announcement of a
potentially several-hundred unit deployment in Telia's network. Telia
International is a multinational carrier that provides IP transit,
voice services, infrastructure, and carrier-neutral collocation
services as a major provider of transatlantic IP traffic from Europe
to the United States. This deployment, which is to be rolled out
throughout its global enterprise, will be one of the most significant
deployments of a customer-based SIP firewall to date.

As Predicted, VoIP Security
Market Heats Up with Telia's Deployment of Ingate
SIParator
Because SIP is a new protocol, though, existing firewalls currently
block SIP media streams. Ingate's technology allows SIP to interoperate
with existing installed firewalls. Ingate's suite of firewalls and
SIParators are available in a range of models to meet the needs of the
entire enterprise market. All include a SIP proxy and a SIP registrar,
support NAT and PAT and have TLS support for encrypted SIP signaling, which
means that instant messages are automatically encrypted, eliminating IM
security concerns.

Ingate has already sold units to Swedish carrier Telia and embattled

CommWorks Corp., a subsidiary of 3Com Corp. that develops IP
technologies for carrier networks, has certified Ingate's SIParator, the
product that enables existing firewalls to allow SIP-based communication.
CommWorks product manager Venkatakrishnan Raman ... said it scored 90
percent (nothing below 80 passes) and it is the only SIP-capable firewall
product to gain CommWorks certification. From a small enterprise
perspective, Ingate's solution was good, Raman says.

Firewall makers, such as Cisco and Check Point Software, have added
support for SIP and H.323 to their firewalls. Other vendors including
Swedish firm Ingate, Acme Packets and Jasomi, offer VoIP-specific firewalls
and appliances that supplement firewalls to better handle voice. Ingate's
device supports SIP on dynamically allocated ports on the firewall, which
lets large volumes of calls through the box, as opposed to opening a
specific port on a firewall for VoIP, which could leave a network open to
intrusion.

We brought two Ingate Firewall® 1400s to a customer site to
demonstrate the ease-of-use and effectiveness of the product. The test
went so well that the customer refused to return the units to us.

Ingate introduced a firewall that the company says addresses a
glaring security problem with SIP.
The Ingate Firewall® is a $2,500 box that would sit at the edge of a WAN or
Internet connection and provide firewall traffic filtering with support for
SIP VoIP traffic. According to the company, the box supports SIP on
dynamically allocated ports on the firewall, which can allow businesses to
pass large volumes of calls through the box, as opposed to opening a
specific port on a firewall for VoIP, which could leave a network open to
intrusion.

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) management across firewalls
integrates
many forms of communications with data and processes safely across
corporate and consumer boundaries. This opens a huge opportunity for
integrated instant messaging and VOIP services to be brought to the
mainstream and mission-critical environments.

Collaboration Services, Aberdeen Group, Inc, March 2002.
