Abstract

A method for a seamless transfer of a secure multimedia conference session from one endpoint device to another without a need to rekey the session is provided. In this method, a first endpoint device connects a participant to a multimedia conference session to which at least one other participant is connected and based on detecting one or more second endpoint devices within a predetermined location proximity of the first endpoint device, determines whether to transfer the multimedia conference session to a target endpoint device. Based on determining that the session is to be transferred, the first endpoint device establishes a secure pairing connection directly with the target endpoint device and provides, via the secure pairing connection, information about the multimedia conference session based on which the multimedia conference session is transferred to the target endpoint device without rekeying the multimedia conference session.
