SAI Publishes Paper on the Role of Call Accounting in Securing Telecom Networks and Meeting Compliance Requirements

El Dorado Hills, CA—February 3, 2009

SAI, a leading provider of usage management software and call accounting solutions, announced today it has released a new paper entitled “Call Accounting Boosts Telecom Security – Protects Your Bottom Line” which is available for download on SAI's website.

The paper highlights several studies that outline the scope of the security and compliance challenges facing businesses today, and includes survey results by industry experts about the state of enterprise security and the new demands placed on IT departments.

It also examines key issues surrounding the use of call accounting applications to secure IT and telecom networks and the benefits of deploying call accounting software to protect proprietary assets and meet compliance requirements.  The paper goes on to identify best practices that can help maximize the security, availability and manageability of IP and legacy telephony systems within the enterprise.

Some of the findings and conclusions include:

  • Telecom security issues can be an overlooked drain to your bottom line;
  • Two-thirds of corporate security professionals reported security breaches or couldn't rule out that their data had been compromised;
  • Most security breaches come from a surprising source;
  • VoIP doesn't have to be a security sieve;
  • Call accounting applications facilitate regulatory compliance and sustainable corporate governance;

"Call accounting's reputation as a premier expense chargeback tool is widely recognized, however, that is only one of the benefits of using a call accounting solution” says Bob Lamvik, COO of SAI. "This paper discusses how call accounting provides other benefits such as compliance, network management and the protection of corporate assets that may not be as well-known, but are just as critical to the financial well-being of most companies in today's fragile economy."
