Abstract

Methods and systems for secure conferencing in a network have been provided. Relevant endpoints from the provided endpoints are selected on the basis of the endpoint selection parameters received in an SRTP extension. Data streams generated from the selected endpoints are decrypted and mixed, to obtain all the possible data stream mixes. A source identifier is inserted in all the possible data stream mixes. On the basis of source identifiers, endpoints can selectively receive any of the generated data streams.
