And I've been wasting time encrypting GRE tunnels all these years!! The best part of fax in the medical field is that 95% of healthcare providers will immediately (if not automatically, hello Gofax/Efax/every fax machine less than 10 years old) digitise printed faxes back into their internet-connected and remotely accessible PAS.
Nobody will guess username doctor password blank though, so your pathology results are safe 🙂 Pretty much the only faxes that aren't digitised in healthcare are the "buy a timeshare" spam faxes which, somehow, still exist. ________________________________ From: AusNOG <ausnog-boun...@lists.ausnog.net> on behalf of Karl Auer <ka...@biplane.com.au> Sent: Thursday, January 13, 2022 8:08 PM To: ausnog@lists.ausnog.net <ausnog@lists.ausnog.net> Subject: Re: [AusNOG] ISDN shutdown 31 May 2022 On Thu, 2022-01-13 at 18:55 +1100, Adam Heathcote wrote: > Whilst this is generally true, any SIP provider that isn’t using TLS > can reconstruct the fax image with voip diagnostic software/packet > sniffers.

I think being a SIP provider would count as "interception between the endpoints takes a lot of specialised knowledge", not to mention an absolute shedload of specialised equipment. The Internet Fax Machine would obviously not have this vulnerability :- ) Regards, K. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Karl Auer (ka...@biplane.com.au) http://www.biplane.com.au/kauer GPG fingerprint: 61A0 99A9 8823 3A75 871E 5D90 BADB B237 260C 9C58 Old fingerprint: 2561 E9EC D868 E73C 8AF1 49CF EE50 4B1D CCA1 5170 _______________________________________________ AusNOG mailing list AusNOG@lists.ausnog.net http://lists.ausnog.net/mailman/listinfo/ausnog
