How secure is the DECT technology?

[holmes4]

I wouldn't worry about it at all. While DECT is crackable, it is beyond the means of all but the most dedicated individual. The risk of your bank or mortgage company leaking the data is higher, in my opinion.

You didn't ask about the security of the VoIP call... But that is encrypted, and unless you are using an unprotected wireless network, the chance of that being intercepted and cracked is too low to be concerned about.

I do not believe that VoIP calls are encrypted.

They use a compression codec, but I've only heard of Ooma employing encryption.
PSTN calls, and cell phone calls are likely no more secure either.

Not sure what they use on TV shows when they call from a "secure phone".

Agreed with usa2k totally!!!

VoIP calls are not encrypted. That is also another reason I asked the question.

The bad guys always use throw-away pre-loaded cell phones.
