Understanding Security Features for Cisco Unified IP Phones
Feature Information for Users
If you are a system administrator, you are the primary source of information for Cisco Unified Wireless
IP Phone users in your network or company. To ensure that you distribute the most current feature and
procedural information, familiarize yourself with Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G, 7925G-EX,
and 7926G documentation. Make sure you visit the Cisco Unified IP Phone web site:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/phones/ps379/tsd_products_support_maintain_and_operate.

From this site, you can view additional phone documentation.
In addition to providing documentation, it is important to inform users about available Cisco Unified IP
Phone features—including features specific to your company or network—and about how to access and
customize those features, if appropriate.

Understanding Security Features for Cisco Unified IP Phones
Implementing security in a wireless network protects against data tampering to Cisco Unified
Communications Manager data, call signaling, and media stream. It also reduces the chances for identity
theft. To reduce the threats, the Cisco wireless LAN (WLAN) provides options for user authentication
with servers and for encrypting communications streams between phones and network devices.
