IPTV Security Assessment
IPTV technology is an emerging technology that enables IP-based digital TV, video-on-demand, and other technologies. IPTV is made possible by the advent of broadband and voice services using very high bit-rate DSL (VDSL). IPTV services are expected to be deployed to over 10 million households in the next few years.
IPTV is also subject to spamming, spoofing, content theft, and other hacking attacks, like many other IP-based solutions. Foundstone performs IPTV Security Assessments for many telecommunications companies to ensure that their IPTV are secured according to industry best practices.
Foundstone assesses IPTV in these five major phases:
- Architecture and Design Assessment
- Evaluate the infrastructure and security practices in the architecture and design
- External Penetration Testing
- Evaluate the security of internet-facing hosts
- Host Configuration Assessments
- Assessment of the configurations of routers, switches, and servers against industry best practices
- IPTV Services Security Assessment
- Evaluate the security of the IPTV service from a customer's perspective and determine if the IPTV service could allow potential service fraud, denial-of-service or other attacks
- Policy and Procedure Gap Analysis
- Evaluate the gap of the current policies and procedures against known best practices according to the ISO17799 security standard
