Participating in an Encrypted Call

Using Your Polycom HDX 4000 Series as a Computer
Monitor

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.
You can save space in your office or conference room by also using the
Polycom HDX 4000 series display as your computer monitor.
