Polycom RealPresence Group systems can generate and use certificates to
authenticate network connections to and from the Polycom RealPresence
Group system. The system can manage certificates, certificate signing
requests (CSRs, sometimes also called unsigned certificates), and revocation
lists. ANSI X.509 standards regulate the characteristics of certificates and
revocation.
Version 4.1.1 supports the configurable use of FIPS 140-validated
cryptography. When the FIPS 140 setting is enabled, all cryptography used on
the system comes from a software module that has been validated to FIPS
140-2 standards.
Version 4.1.1 adds a Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS), which uses
network analysis techniques to discover unauthorized access to the network.
For information about the types of packets that are detected, refer to the
Administrator's Guide for the Polycom RealPresence Group Series.
Version 4.1.1 provides full support for IPv6. RealPresence Group Series
systems can be deployed on IPv4 networks, IPv6 networks, or dual-stack
networks.
The RealPresence Group series now supports Assured Services Session
Initiation Protocol (AS-SIP). AS-SIP is a DoD variant of SIP used as part of its
initiative to build a reliable and secure IP communications network. AS-SIP
incorporates Multilevel Precedence and Preemption, Secure Signaling and
Media, Quality of Service (QoS), and IPv6 support.
