Join a Webex Meeting with End-to-End Encryption
Zero-Trust Security from Webex provides end-to-end encryption and strong identity verification in your scheduled and personal room meetings.
Follow the steps in join a Webex Meeting to join your Webex meeting.
Once you join your meeting, you can also see other participants' authentication status.
-
– Identity verified by an external public Certificate Authority (CA) or Identity Provider (IdP).
-
– Identity verified by Webex CA.
-
– Identity unverified. Unverified participants haven't signed in or authenticated to verify their identity with the Webex service. An unverified participant may enter any name when joining the Webex meeting. This name is displayed in the participant panel, but Webex cannot verify their identity. Care and consideration should be taken with people who join, or want to join, meetings as unverified users. We strongly recommend meeting hosts take steps to verify that an unverified participant is who they say they are.
