Telephonic is pleased to announce that Elastix 2.0, the leading Asterisk and FreePBX distribution for the enterprise, will soon include a dedicated security module. This new free add-in module will provide configuration abilities for the built-in Linux firewall (iptables) and also perform auditing of accounts and extensions on your IP-PBX. These settings are key in preventing unauthorized access and calls on your IP-PBX.
The Elastix team is taking security very seriously and we are happy to see their open dedication to keeping your IP-PBX secure:
“This is just the first version. We have many more ideas in mind for security so that in future we will include more and more functionality to this module” Says Edgar Landivar, CEO of PaloSanto Solutions, the company behind the Elastix product. “Many other IP-PBX products do not have similar tools so Elastix is an example to follow”.
Please read this press release for more detailed information. Please ask our staff how we can help you install and enable the new Elastix 2.0 security module.
