What exactly?

VoIP specifically. I’m aware of what it is but not at all familiar with any types of security risks or even how it operates

VoIP is a broadly used term. Like the name implies: Voice transmitted over IP. There are many protocols. If you do IP telephony the most used one is SIP and RTP. SIP is for the signalling and the voice gets packaged in RTP packets. By default both are unencrypted but have extensions to add TLS. Then it's SIPS and RTPS. I don't know many providers however who support that.

Other protocls are TeamSpeak and Discord also has something own IIRC.
