In one embodiment, a method includes providing a request to store at least a first piece of data. The request to store the first piece of data is a request to store the first piece of data in a first encrypted form on a cloud associated with the cloud application provider. The method also includes determining whether the cloud application provider is capable of encrypting the first piece of data, and providing the first piece of data to the cloud application provider if it is determined that the cloud application provider is capable of encrypting the first piece of data. If it is determined that the cloud application provider is not capable of encrypting the first piece of data, the method further includes encrypting the first piece of data to create the first encrypted form and providing the first encrypted form to the cloud application provider.

Method and apparatus for enforcing storage encryption for data stored in a cloud

In one embodiment, a method includes supporting a participation of a first endpoint in a first session and identifying a first time when a second session is to begin, where the first endpoint is expected to participate in the second session. The method also includes determining whether the first endpoint is still participating in the first session at approximately the first time, identifying a first condition when it is determined that the first endpoint is still participating in the first session at approximately the first time, and determining when the first condition is met while supporting the participation of the first endpoint in the first session. Finally, the method includes causing the first endpoint to switch to participating in the second session when it is determined that the first condition is met.

System for managing multiple meetings using policy driven rules

In one embodiment, more than one surveillance cameras cover different viewing zones. The different viewing zones have different priority levels depending upon the importance of what is being covered by the surveillance camera. A controller detects the failure of a surveillance camera and directs a camera covering a lower priority viewing zone to cover the viewing zone of the failed camera. A method for the operation of the surveillance cameras is also provided.
