<div>It looked like they had access to SS7
links (likely A links terminated to a
physical server) and were using FreeSWITCH
to somehow fork the media from the call and
record it. Just a guess based on the quick
console recording. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Correct, SS7 doesn't carry the actual
voice it handles the signaling to bring up
the voice channels (by identifying be point
code and CICs) and various other signaling
bits. Not sure if there are provisions for
CALEA in SS7 that could fork a media stream
or exactly how that would work.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So I guess the barrier to entry would be
access to the SS7 network, not as easy as
hopping on the Internet, but certainly not
much of a challenge. </div>

In other words the hacker has to
have working SS7 trunks or
access to someone who does? That
is how I understood it.<br>

Not exactly a remote hack from
