*It's officially less than two months before the OpenSIPS summit hits Chicago!* If you've ever wondered how OpenSIPS can help you with your Freeswitch deployments, now's your chance. For all of you attending ClueCon, we'll be holding an OpenSIPS summit on Aug 4 running most of the day before ClueCon officially kicks off. Last year's summit was a tremendous success. Everyone that attended enjoyed interesting topics and discussions. Along with this announcement, we would like to announce the first two speakers for this years summit: *Using OpenSIPS as a single entry point for a SIP network * /Nowadays, it is becoming harder to protect VoIP providers. The complexity of the environment makes it easy to miss a security breach. Patching all equipment is usually not viable with the current workmanship. What OpenSIPS can do to help in this battle? In this presentation, we are going to cover: Using OpenSIPS as a single point of protection. / *Flavio E. Goncalves* is a CTO of SipPulse, a company dedicated to implement solutions for VoIP providers and High Volume Telephony. He is the author of the book Building Telephony Systems with OpenSIPS. *Advanced SIP Routing using OpenSIPS *** /The goal of this presentation will be to provide you enough information to be able to make an informed business decision regarding which advanced SIP routing module (or modules) to use. Business rules for outbound calls will likely be different than for inbound calls. An understanding of the modules used for advanced SIP routing will allow you to make the best decision based on your particular use case./ *Norman Brandinger* is an expert in the configuration and use of OpenSIPS, FreeSWITCH and related VoIP technologies. He has successfully deployed VoIP solutions in the Mobile App, Hospitality and Financial Services sectors resulting in new business opportunities and reduced operating expenses.
