Source: solokay.blogspot.com

Sipera systems has recently snagged the huge sum of $10 million in funding. Sipera is noted for developing products which protect VoIP businesses from array of VoIP –borne threats including voice spam and toll fraud. The company has come up, against all odd, with a start up funding of $29.5 million in order to insure that it gives the best to its valued customers in term of security.

Just some few weeks back, company like Sun-Rocket that are well-funded experienced set-back thereby left many customers stranded, Sipera has come all the way to prove beyond any reasonable doubt its commitment to the VoIP industry. This is well explained by Sipera CEO, Seshu Madhavapeddy, who said “There is definitely some turbulence in the consumer VoIP service provider market, but there is very health growth in the wireless VoIP market that manifests itself in VoIP over Wi-Fi”.

The VoIP security is becoming a popular interest to companies seek for fund to ensure that they meet up to expectation. As it were, more hands would be on deck to join Sipera in ensuring security in the VoIP services.
