[Freeswitch-users] Hacked FreeSWITCH mentioned on the Verge regarding bomb threats

[Giovanni Maruzzelli]

Is nice because they mention FreeSWITCH in the tag of the link, but the
link is about FreePBX.

Anyway, it's true: if you do not use the standard security practice, and
leave your FreeSWITCH with standard password "1234", or maybe you change
the standard password to "password", you probably will be hacked, and phone
calls will be originated from your FreeSWITCH that you do not want to
originate.

But, man, that's what you, and me, and anyone is expecting.

Also, please do not drive wrong way in the autobahn :))
