Ensuring the security of your cloud VoIP service

Introduction

Hosted VoIP is now mainstream and will soon be the dominant means of enabling effective business communications. According to data from Cavell Group, a consultancy firm, we are moving towards a tipping point in hosted telephony: the ongoing decline in on-premises solutions, such as PBXs, is about to be overtaken by the growing market penetration of hosted services around the world.

Thanks to advances in network speeds and their reliability to carry voice and business data over the same lines, as well as improved connectivity of a range of devices, cloud-based VoIP services will soon replace traditional on-premise solutions in the enterprise. Put simply, hosted VoIP is now mainstream and is set to become the dominant means of enabling effective business communications.

For example, according to Cavell Group, strong growth over the last 6 months has brought the UK hosted VoIP market to over 3 million users, making the UK the leader in Europe in terms of numbers of Hosted VoIP users.
