Verizon One Talk Security Features

Introduction to Verizon One Talk

Verizon One Talk is a mobile-first business communication solution integrating voice, video, and messaging for seamless connectivity across devices. Designed with both office-based and mobile workers in mind, One Talk connects users through the Verizon Wireless network, offering over 50 customizable features managed via a web portal or mobile app.

One Talk allows employees to use a single Verizon Wireless number across smartphones, desk phones, computers, and tablets, enabling consistent communication on the go or in the office.

Key Security Features

One Talk leverages Verizon's network security infrastructure to provide multiple layers of protection for communications and data. Here are the primary security mechanisms:

  1. Secure UICC and Mutual Authentication:

    • The Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) secures subscriber and network data.
    • Verizon ensures mutual authentication between the network and the user, preventing man-in-the-middle attacks by rogue network base stations.

  2. 128-Bit Encryption:

    • Data and signaling transmissions are encrypted using industry-standard 128-bit keys. This ensures secure communication over the network, making it resistant to eavesdropping.

  3. Integrity Protection:

    • Signals between users and the network are verified with integrity tags, ensuring the data has not been tampered with during transmission.

  4. PIN and PUK Protection:

    • Personal Identification Number (PIN) and PIN Unblocking Key (PUK) mechanisms add an additional layer of access control for the UICC, securing access to data or applications on the Verizon network.

Desk Phones and One Talk App Security

  • T67LTE Desk Phone: Verizon's T67LTE desk phone is the first to feature embedded 4G LTE technology in the U.S., offering secure communication through Verizon’s network.
  • One Talk App: Used across multiple devices, the One Talk App utilizes security protocols such as:
    • TLS for Signaling Protection: Ensuring privacy and integrity of call setup via encrypted Transport Layer Security (TLS).
    • SRTP for Media Encryption: Protects voice and video transmissions with encryption and message authentication.

My Business Portal for Administrators

Administrators can manage system settings, user configurations, billing, and more through the My Business Portal. Access is controlled via User ID and password, with credentials securely hashed to prevent unauthorized access.
