Hacking Video Conferencing Systems

High-end videoconferencing systems are widely deployed at critical locations such as corporate meeting rooms or boardrooms. Many of these systems are reachable from the Internet or via the telephone network while in many cases the security considerations are limited to the secure deployment and configuration. We conducted a case study on Polycom HDX devices in order to assess the current state ...

Conferencing and Collaborative Computing

In particular, these developments are a result of the emergence of standards for interoperability. Windowing systems, such as the X window system [Sch88], configurable graphical user interfaces, like the Tk/Tcl toolkit [Ous90, Ous91], and a widely available network application programming interfaces (API), such as Unix sockets [Sun88], all have given rise to more generalized software platforms ...

INTERNET - DRAFT Conferencing Architecture

Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as refer...

Handheld , Mobile Video Conferencing

Recent improvements in the technology of handheld computers and mobile communications have made the task of exploring handheld mobile video conferencing feasible. Handheld mobile video conferencing introduces a number of constraints that affect the type of coders and protocols that are used. This research project has explored audio and video coders that are suitable for use in a handheld wirele...
