“Phone security is still a serious concern, said John Girard, vice president & research director of the network research advisory services practice at Gartner Inc. “Everyone turned their attention to the Internet, which arguably is a more efficient and less expensive place to hack, but unauthorized system access via [dial-up] modems continues to happen and cannot be ignored. SecureLogix has a very scalable and distributable system to cope with finding unexpected modems and the PCs and servers connected to them.”

“There is certainly a need for security and access control in the telephone market,” he says. “There are only a very small number of companies that offer that service right now.”

"From a security perspective, the convergence of voice and data networks has been underway for years," said Eric Hemmendinger, research director for security at the Aberdeen Group. "IS decision-makers can either attempt to segregate the networks or deal with the ongoing convergence and deploy tools that will mitigate the risks inherent in the converged networks. SecureLogix is delivering a suite of capabilities that help to mitigate those risks and help to identify and manage the costs associated with the existing telephony infrastructure that is being connected to IP networks, providing a lifeline for both IT security professionals and telecommunications professionals."

Laurie J. Hanna, Analyst with Clear Thinking Research, remarked, "The SecureLogix ETM ® platform provides real-time visibility over your entire enterprise telephony network from one computer console. Coupled with a set of robust tools to manage and control the use of your telecom resources, organizations can now address significant security, management and cost issues that have plagued PBX environments since their creation. We have long known that hackers can penetrate corporate data networks through telephone lines and other authorized and unauthorized modem connections. SecureLogix not only addresses those threats, but also enables the customer to significantly lower their phone bills. I believe deploying the SecureLogix platform in many cases could show a demonstrable ROI within months."
