Participating in an Encrypted Call

If encryption is enabled on the system, a locked padlock icon appears on the

monitor when a call is encrypted. If a call is unencrypted, an unlocked padlock

appears on the monitor.
If you are in a point-to-point call or a multipoint call hosted by another

system, the padlock icon displays the state of your individual connection.

If you are hosting a multipoint call, the padlock icon displays the

combined state of all connections: encrypted if all connections in the call

are encrypted, unencrypted if one or more connections in the call are not

encrypted.

In one call, some connections might be encrypted while others are not. The

padlock icon might not accurately indicate whether the call is encrypted if the

call is cascaded or includes an audio-only endpoint. If encryption is required

on your system, the far end must support encryption or the call will not be

completed. To avoid security risks, Polycom recommends that all participants

communicate the state of their padlock icons verbally at the beginning of a call.
