[asterisk-biz] Any installations in European Consulates or Embassies?

[John Todd]

Well, I think that's a bit far-fetched.   Really, really far-fetched.   
Random fishing expeditions for vendors of PBX platforms, which are  
going to be on private networks, is inefficient to the point of zero  
returns.  There are so many other layers of security that have to be  
penetrated before the concept of "Asterisk" is a security element that  
is even considered...  If you've seen embassy telecommunications  
systems in any security-minded nation, you'd understand that vendor  
identity for primary platform isn't a serious consideration.
