iChat Video Encryption

Question

iChat Video Encryption

Does anyone know if iChat encrypts the video and audio when it is communicating with another iChat client?

I want to install mac minis in our office to replace our Tandberg video conferencing devices. I plan on having several mac minis as clients and a xserve running as the iChat server, the only thing is i have to be able to encrypt the audio and the video.

Does any one know if this is possible?

Thanks

Hello Jeffrey,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!

Not sure if video can be encrypted, although text and file transfers can be, but it can be accomplished through a third party add on such as [Zfone|http://zfoneproject.com/faq.html] (the link will take you to their FAQ page for now because I thought it would be best). Check it out. There are a handful of other alternatives as well.

Hope this helps.
