  • Click to IM
  • Click to Call
  • Click to Email
  • Click to Text
• Start or join an instant Cisco WebEx meeting from an IM conversation
• Search for colleagues in the corporate directory
• Maintain security using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption and connecting your iPhone directly to the Cisco IM infrastructure through Cisco Unified Presence or Cisco WebEx Connect.
