"Security is a critical concern for enterprises rolling out VoIP solutions or planning to do so in the near future," said Herdman. "When implemented properly and securely, VoIP can be a powerful communications solution that can have a significant impact on enterprises by enhancing the productivity of their most important assets - their knowledge workers."

Every year, we strive to fill our speaking slots with the brightest minds in the industry and the participation of a recognized leader like Darwin is essential in delivering maximum value to our conference attendees," said TMC President and conference chairman Rich Tehrani.
