Francois, thanks for the note!

 

Sorry, since I had forgotten the possibility of the private network
proxy being compromised:

 

-          If it is a financial institution , it is an open door to
steal money,

-          If it is a law enforcement organization, the agents will get
killed,

-          SIPS for proxies is just as bad for any private network as
well as for service providers and their customers.

 

>From this perspective, any intermediary is either an invitation for some
bad or outright dangerous behavior.

 

SIPS cannot obfuscate that the only security is e2e. Any intermediary is
vulnerability.

 

Henry

Which service providers in the middle? :^)

 

All that is needed is an IP network.

        The guys are you and me :-)

        If it's an enterprise network, then the enterprise network is
the endpoint and we agree here.

         

        Now what about all those service provider networks in the
middle?
