Account Properties – Security

Currently, security is supported, but there are no icons on the GUI to indicate whether an incoming or outgoing
call is being made with or without security.

You can set up Bria for the type of security (encryption) you want for incoming and outgoing calls.

Bria supports:

• Signaling encryption using TLS
• Media encryption using SRTP.

Setting up for Security outside of Bria

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 Bria computer, in the root certificate store.

Description

Signaling Transport

Contact your VoIP service provider to identify the types of transport that are
supported. Then choose a supported transport:

• Automatic: Bria sets up the transport based on the capabilities of the network

and the Bria 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 Table 8 on page 66.

The factory setting is Make unencrypted calls, accept all calls.
