Netcloud Partnership Tackles Fraud

Netcloud has announced an agreement with Pika Technologies to distribute their zero configuration SIP firewall and threat management system.

The PIKA µFirewall is designed to protect SIP based IP-PBX systems and uses a revolutionary process to identify and prevent the most common fraudulent activities before they happen. The µFirewall achieves this by analysing all SIP packets through deep packet inspection and then preventing abnormal SIP protocol usage based on pre-determined parameters.

PIKA’s µFirewall is a plug and play device that is simply positioned between the IP-PBX and the network. It requires ZERO specialist skills, ZERO configuration and ZERO ongoing maintenance.

Paul Freeman, Netcloud Sales Manger, added “We are extremely pleased to introduce the PIKA µFirewall to the UK market. The advantages of SIP based communications are widely recognised across UK businesses, but there is also a requirement to protect these services from the increasing threat from fraudulent activities. The µFirewall is the first device to achieve this protection in a zero configuration manner and at a cost effective price that is designed to appeal to businesses of all sizes.”
