andrewgroup Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Today we had a client PBX with park orbits and low or easy SIP passwords get remote registrations from a Canadian IP address and the clients PBX was making outbound BANK CARD scam calls.... Caught it early but the lessons are clear and a few best practices are coming from the experience and perhaps a feature request... Lesson 1. Complex Passwords are a must - No longer can we make it easy for the users Lesson 2. Park Orbits will not enherit a default dial plan Lesson 3. enable more logging an email notifications on extensions Possible Feature requests - (optional allowable IP Address ranges on an ext Basis for phones to register from. Cheers, and learn from the experienced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, and learn from the experienced. Totally agree. We introduced the script that checks password for their "randomness". Unfortunately, due to a request from the sales front, we were asked to disable it in the default installation, so that a password like "secret" is accepted as a password (like "", the empty string).
