- TLS is Transport Layer Security – a security function.
- By default, our system will use UDP & TCP (TCP and UDP are the most commonly used connection protocols for data travel on the Internet).
- However, if your device supports TLS to enable e-commerce transaction security on the Web, which required encryption to protect customers’ personal data, as well as authentication and integrity guarantees to ensure a safe transaction, you can enable TLS function on the Bizphone portal so that whenever you make/receive calls, TLS will encrypt them to secure the connection. The call will not be captured by anybody in the system environment.
