Blue Box: The VoIP Security Podcast
Dan York and Jonathan Zar
Recent Episodes
I'm pleased to note that all Blue Box podcast episodes are now available again. As I mentioned yesterday, it was purely an administrative issue with the payment method.
For those curious, this show is a prime example of the "Long Tail" of content on the Web - even though we haven't produced a new "real" show since #85 on October 23, 2008, we still see anywhere from 30-100 downloads of various Blue Box shows every day. People are finding the show through various search terms and listening to the episodes.
Perhaps somewhat sadly this is also a commentary on how relevant some of the same VoIP security issues we discussed from 2005-2008 still are today in 2012!
My apologies, again, to anyone who tried listening over the past weekend when the show was offline. Thank you for the interest and for I hope that you find our past episodes educational and useful.
UPDATE 9/24/2012 - All Blue Box episodes are now back online.
If you are trying to listen to any of our old Blue Box shows, unfortunately it seems I missed an email alert and the payment method expired for the service I use to host the media files. I am in communication with their billing department now and expect to have the matter cleared up tomorrow with the shows available again.
My apologies to anyone who was trying to listen to one of the shows. I will get them back online as soon as I can.
You also have to think beyond voice to also including instant messaging/IM, video, presence, mobile devices and more. And... you have to think about them in the context of a globally-distributed IP infrastructure.
Information about the book and links to resources mentioned in the book are available from the books website:

I have also posted links there to two podcast interviews I've done related to the book:
I am working on getting permission to run those both as Blue Box Special Editions (I have approval on the VUC session).
In many ways, much of the book came out of the three years of great conversations that Jonathan and I had with so many of you - and I have to thank all of you who have participated in the Blue Box community over the years for your questions, your comments and all the feedback. I hope you will find that this book continues that dialogue and discussion about how to secure our communications networks.
