For clients on the iOS and Android operating systems, the security and encryption structure depends on whether
you are using the client within your organization's Wi-Fi network.
- Within the corporate Wi-Fi network, VMP
uses Comet to send a content-less notification to the device. The device then accesses the
VMP Server to retrieve the message.
- If you are using a device running the iOS operating system outside of your corporate Wi-Fi environment,
the VMP Server uses the security
features provided with the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS).
- If you are using a device running the Android operating system outside of your corporate Wi-Fi environment,
the VMP Server uses the security
features provided with the Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) service.
Note: On Android and iOS devices, the Vocera Collaboration Suite
application performs its own data encryption and decryption. It does not depend on the operating system's
encryption process.
