Vip, the overall message is that it takes layers of
settings/configurations to "secure" an installation.

Simple Guide
1. alwaysauthreject = yes in
http://svn.asterisk.org/svn/asterisk/trunk/configs/sip.conf.sample
2. Static firewall rules
2.1 Drop invalid traffic
2.2 Slow ICMP and TCP Reset attacks
2.3 Disable unneeded services
3. Dynamic firewall rules
3.1 Fail2ban (works ok, but you should test it)
3.2 Portscanning Block
(http://www.newartisans.com/2007/09/neat-tricks-with-iptables.html)
3.3 Other solutions
3.4 Bad Network Lists (http://www.spamhaus.org/drop/)
4. Auditing.   None of the above will work if not audited or reviewed
on a regular basis.
5. Reporting.  With Monthly reporting you can see trends and make good choices.
