Video Network Security

Polycom recommends the following general precautions to keep
your video network secure:

Deploy IP endpoints behind a firewall.

If your deployment seldom requires centralized management
capabilities, disable all endpoints’ remote management
capabilities.

If your deployment does not ever require centralized
management capabilities, consider an ISDN-only deployment.

For detailed discussions of how to secure specific models of
videoconferencing equipment, please refer to the documents
available at Polycom’s Security Center,
