Hi all

      Thanks Luis for mentioning this major evolution in Alcatel product
      line of large PBX which happened in 2003 with the release of the
      successor to the 4400: the OmniPCX Enterprise IP-PBX running on the
      Linux kernel. At that time a major effort has been made on security
      aspects with a lot of hardening being performed on the operating
      system (Linux), the run-time environment and offered services,
      selection and configuration of applications running on this platform.

      Alcatel strongly recommands to upgrade the old version of PABX4400 to
      IP-PBX OXE to benefit the last features and the customer will have a
      VoIP solution which will give satisfaction to his security needs.

      End 2005 Alcatel's voice solution OmniPCX Enterprise underwent
      testing performed by MIERCOM which is a privately held network
      consultancy, specializing in networking and communications-related
      product testing and analysis. The security efforts Alcatel made over
      many years on this solution have been rewarded by Miercom which
      recognized the Alcatel IP-PXB as the most secured PBX for the
      Enterprise in 2006. You will find at this URL (

      ) the security report written by Miercom.

      Alcatel is constantly evaluating and refining its security strategy
      regarding all the solutions provided by ESD, Alcatel has also
      established security internal processes for Proactive awareness :
      education, design practices, tests and for Improved reactivity when
      facing security alerts.

      Sincères Salutations - Best Regards - Mit Freundlichen Grüssen -
      Atentamente - Cordiali Saluti
