Thanks for the table. &nbsp;<br />
We would be hosting a PBX with a provider not Azure or AWS, ie. ringcentral or gamma.

I agree, as we did have our SIP/VoIP system breached not long after it was installed!!

Thanks for sharing. This is why the incident response handling by the provider is important for early detection and proper breach handling and declaration. The public media is also not to be neglected and should have readily prepared public statement...

Hello<br />
We have an IPSec VPN solution for a small number of sites. &nbsp;Our users remote into two of the sites via IPSec VPN too.<br />
We are going to move supplier and looking at moving from IPSec to MPLS. &nbsp;We will look to migrate to AWS and/or move CRM out to other providers. &nbsp;We also will moving from our on prem phone system to a cloud solution.<br />
Has anyone got any recomendation around security, perfornance, limitation etc of each?<br />
Thanks

IPSec VPN (on-prem firewalls) vs MPLS

Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a protocol suite for secure Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and encrypting each IP packet of a communication session. IPsec includes protocols for establishing mutual authentication between agents at the beginning of the session and negotiation of cryptographic keys to be used during the session. IPsec can be used in protecting data flows between a pair of hosts (host-to-host), between a pair of security gateways (network-to-network), or between a security gateway and a host (network-to-host). IPsec is an end-to-end security scheme operating in the Internet Layer of the Internet Protocol Suite.

Amazon Web Services (AWS), is a collection of remote computing services, also called web services, that make up a cloud-computing platform  operated from 11 geographical regions across the world. The most central and well-known of these services include Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, also known as "EC2", and Amazon Simple Storage Service, also known as "S3". Other services include Elastic MapReduce (EMR), Route 53 (a DNS web service),  provides a highly available and scalable Domain Name System (DNS) web service, Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), storage, database, deployment and application services.

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.
