There's also an option that flags weak passwords, too.

I've been using an old version of Trixbox which I've hesitated to upgrade as it works and does everything I need to do. However, I do have some remote SIP extensions with friends and family and I've been frequently hit by script kiddies recently. I had to install fail2ban to identify and block rogue IP addresses. Perhaps it's time to try 3cx. Interesting. I’ve been using an old version of Trixbox which I’ve hesitated to upgrade as it works and does everything I need to do.
