Performance analysis: Securing SIP on multi-threaded/multi-core proxy server using public keys on Diffie-Hellman (DH) in single and multi-server queuing scenarios.

ABSTRACT: The rapid replacement of PSTN with VOIP networks indicates the definitive phase-out of the PBX/PABX with smartphone-based VOIP technology that uses WLAN connectivity for local communication; however, security remains a key issue, regardless of the communication coverage area. Session initiation protocol (SIP) is one of the most widely adopted VOIP connection establishment protocols but requires added security. On the Internet, different security protocols, such as HTTPS (SSL/TLS), IPSec, and S/MIME, are used to protect SIP communication. These protocols require sophisticated infrastructure and some pose a significant overhead that may deteriorate SIP performance. In this article, we propose the following: i) avoid using Internet bandwidth and complex Internet protocols for local communicat
