Account Properties – Security
You can set up eyeBeam for the type of security (encryption) you want for incoming and outgoing calls.
eyeBeam supports:
• Signaling encryption using TLS
• Media encryption using SRTP.
Setting up for Security outside of eyeBeam
When using TLS, you must have the root certificate that signs the proxy's chain of certificates. In most cases,
the root certification will already be installed. Procedures for the exchange of certificates are outside the scope
of this documentation. The certificates must be stored on the eyeBeam computer, in the root certificate store.

Field Description
Signaling Transport Contact your VoIP service provider to identify the types of transport that are
supported. Then choose a supported transport:
• Automatic: eyeBeam sets up the transport based on the capabilities of the
network and the eyeBeam computer. Choose this option if you do not care
which transport is used.
• Encrypted: Currently, this option means TLS will be used. Choose this option
to request signaling encryption or both signaling and media encryption.
• TCP: This transport provides no signaling security.
• UDP: This transport provides no signaling security.
• TLS: Choose this option to request signaling encryption or both signaling and
media encryption.
Media Encryption See Table14 on page 53.
