BELLEVUE, WA — AccessLine Communications announced on Monday that it has increased its Intellectual Property portfolio through the addition of two new patents for its proprietary telecommunications network. The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has granted AccessLine’s applications for patents that cover a cost effective nationwide call processing system and a dynamic security method for VoIP services.
According to a press release by the company, the first Patent No. 7,068,772, entitled “Economical call processing system and method, such as for providing one-number telecommunication services,” protects one of the methods employed by AccessLine to enhance the overall reliability of its nationwide local number access network.
The second Patent No. 7,106,845, entitled “Dynamic security system and method, such as for use in a telecommunications system,” covers aspects of the company’s multi-layer security system that protects against unauthorized access to its VoIP services and features. Rather than employing simple static personal identification numbers (PINs) that are susceptible to hacking, AccessLine has invented a number of methods to support dynamically changing PINs that can be controlled by each user, based on his or her unique requirements, or with respect to any given data.
“As the hosted VoIP services market increases its adoption rate, AccessLine continues to demonstrate market leadership for the business sector through technological innovations such as these, now being recognized and protected by US patents,” said the Chief Scientist at AccessLine Fred Epler.
“Acquiring patents for critical elements of our VoIP architecture allows us to further differentiate our products, such as our SmartVoice Service for business, from competitive offerings,” he added.
AccessLine Communications provides hosted VoIP services for the business market nationwide. The company’s turnkey VoIP service is easy to implement, cost effective, and delivers a complete range of powerful features.
