Vonage I may be pretty new at this 'encryption' thing, but as far as iPhantom goes I think
I may be pretty new at this 'encryption' thing, but as far as iPhantom goes I think you have the wrong idea. Each packet leaving my network is first encrypted via AES, authenticated, and sent to the phantom gateway. In the gateway it is decrypted, authenticated, given an anonymous ip w/o DNS reverse look up and sent to destination. The return info. is then run through phantom's firewall, IDS, AV/spyware scan, encrypted and sent back to my unit which then decrypts each packet. Wouldn't this make at least make it next to impossible to hack both sides of the conversation??
By the way there is no noticeable call quality loss. The only time I notice a drop is when I use my UTS F1000. When I use the hardwired handset the iPhantom has no affect. The Vonage speed test reports my line will support 7 lines w/o iPhantom and 6 w/ iPhantom enabled.
I agree with the notion that if man can build it than another can take it apart. I have used a program (the name escapes me) that used the machines internal noise to generate randomness for encryption. This worked great w/o loss of quality for MS Netmeeting with 2 way a/v. Since 'man' didn't make this one couldn't 'man' have a little trouble taking it apart? Just a thought.
Like I said before I have been out of the world of code for a while. Need something in Ada or Fortran and I am your man. Thats why I run an Insurance business now. No money in ancient code but health care is a whole lot different: lol!
My interest in this topic really comes from the fact that I have a number of networks with a ton of personal and financial information of clients on it. Anything I can do to make it more secure is a huge concern. Which is why after a year or so of research led me to iPhantom, which so far has never been hacked, as just another layer of defence.

• Im new to this forum and just came across a discussion from 11/05 about weather
• If it can be made by man, it can be taken apart by another. The question really is
• I'm aware of how iPhantom works and I use similar techniques when on a "hostile"
• TPA is correct, your traffic still has to get to Vonage unencrypted and that means
• I am using a competing service with an unlocked Sipura 2000 and an unlocked 3102.
