With data security being one of the top topics of discussion in the last few years, keeping your asterisk server and your $$$'s from safe from the bad guys is becoming a real priority for people. Before you can even deploy a server you have to ensure its hack proof and safe from lurking fingers.

This presentation will show you ways to protect your asterisk server from unauthorised access using IPTables and a service known as 'Port Knocking'.

Port Knocking is a way to block out all IP traffic using IPTables and then grant access to the server using a secret 'knock' of specific ports in a specific order.
Once your device as 'Knocked' successfully you can gain access to the PBX.
