A method for establishing a communication session between two endpoints that do not both support secure media includes receiving a registration from a first endpoint. The registration indicating the first endpoint supports secure media and non-secure media. The method also includes receiving a registration from a second endpoint. The registration indicating the second endpoint supports non-secure media. The method also includes receiving a request to establish a communication session between the first endpoint and the second endpoint using secure media. The method further includes establishing the communication session between the first endpoint and the second endpoint via the communications platform using non-secure media.
