Multimedia services using SIP face a range of challenges including traversing Firewalls which were never designed to be VoIP aware, exposing a publicly accessible address for a client which invited hacking and so on. Some of the basic issues surrounding SIP and security are examined in a White Paper from Newport Networks: SIP, Security and Session Controllers- Cisco.com whitepaper: VOIP Security in SIP-Based Networks

The core solution for VoIP Security and VoIP anti-blocking is VGCP (VoiceGuard Control Protocol).
It can work with any 3rd-party Softphone/ATA/Gateway/IPPhone/IADs and SIP proxy or server.
It can work in the way similar to that of soho router, but it only encrypts and decrypts SIP and RTP packets on link layer, not to handup these packets to IP stack for forwarding while bypassing other data packets originating from SIP terminals. In this scenario, peak throughput and minimal CPU overhead can be easily achieved.
VoiceGuard can real-time incorporate light-weight traffic for puzzling and bypassing VoIP blocking system without consuming more bandwidth and compromising voice quality. Even in some circumstance, VoiceGuard can simulate traffic behavior of universal data networking protocol such as OICQ, MSN and so on.
