Not really but you can always limit it using iptables to the hosts you
are dealing with for incoming connections (usually some VOIP provider)
also you can only allow people to log in to asterisk system remotely
using some kind of VPN setup so they do not have to have 5060 open to
use their phones in remote locations.
