VOIP Encryption Software

IP telephone calls are more exposed to eavesdroppers than traditional telecommunication technology. Because IP phones are not part of the public phone network, where tapping requires a specific, physical wire connection and a legal permit, you are more vulnerable to on-listeners. So is it possible to protect yourself from unwanted evesdroppers?

VoIP voice traffic is data that is transmitted over networks which means your transmissions can be protected by encryption. VoIP encryption tools are widely available but there is time and effort required to install, learn and use the technology. A good encryption program can protect your transmissions and make it make it nearly impossible for someone to snoop on your IP telephony calls.

Zfone is one of the easiest ways to encrypt VoIP calls. It is a software package easy to install and designed by the guy who also came up with the  most widely used email encryption software. The technology is simple enough to be installed and used by just about anyone. The latest beta version of Zfone can be downloaded for free. The software's biggest drawback is that it requires both callers to install the application. This means that calls to people you already know, at least those who are willing to install Zfone, will be secure. But calls to banks, brokers, government agencies, and various other organizations and strangers won't necessarily be protected.
