Ingate: Making Global Secure SIP, Unified Communications Possible
Ingate Firewalls and SIParators make SIP possible by solving the NAT and firewall traversal issues with SIP. They allow businesses to adopt and use SIP communications - including SIP trunking - to reach users not only within the local area network but outside the enterprise as well.

Ingate Firewalls provide full enterprise security for all SIP and data traffic. SIParators work seamlessly with an existing firewall to allow the traversal of SIP traffic through the enterprise edge, securing SIP traffic while leaving the firewalling of data to the existing security device.

The new Ingate Firewalls and SIParators are available now.
