 ### Can I provide secure access to BigBlueButton
 
 There are multiple security mechanisms in BigBlueButton.  
 
-When the BigBlueButton server is secured with an transport level security (TLS) certificate, all content download from the server to the user's browser occurs via hypertext transport protocol secure (HTTPS).  We provide an installation script for BigBlueButton that can automate the setup of TLS certificate (see [bbb-install.sh](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bbb-install)).

We provide an installation script for BigBlueButton that can automate the setup of the TLS certificate (see [bbb-install.sh](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bbb-install)).
 
 When a front-end makes an API request to BigBlueButton, the BigBlueButton server validates the incoming server checksum computed from a shared secret (see [API Security Model](http://docs.bigbluebutton.org/dev/api.html#api-security-model)).  If the checksum match fails, the request is ignored.
 
-When the BigBlueButton client loads, it makes data connections back to the BigBlueButton server using a web socket connection encrypted HTTPS.  When the BigBlueButton shares the user's audio, video, or screen, the browser uses the built-in web real-time communication (WebRTC) libraries that transmit real-time protocol packets (RTP) over user datagram protocol (UDP) via Datagram Transport Layer Security (see [DTLS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datagram_Transport_Layer_Security)).  Furthermore, to provide communications privacy for datagram protocols the media packets are  encrypted using Secure Real-Time Protocol (see [SRTP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Real-time_Transport_Protocol)).

-As desribed above, by saying there are _multiple_ security mechanisms BigBlueButton, does this mean BigBlueButton offers secure collaboration?  No.  No system is really secure, there are only levels of security.  There are always opportunities to make BigBlueButton more secure with each release.  To understand how we prioritize features for a release (and how you can influence the priorities), see [When will feature X be implemented?](/support/faq.html#when-will-feature-x-be-implemented).

-This is by design.  Why is this the case?  This design makes it easy for system administrators to upgrade or replace a BigBlueButton server without migrating/updating any database.  As an analogy, the BigBlueButton server works like a web server.  When loading content from web server, you don't tell a web server "I need to load a file at 2:00 PM tomorrow"; rather, you just load a file when needed. The web server responds to the request and, when finished, it forgets about the request and moves onto the next.

-It's similar with the BigBlueButton server.  The lifespan of a session on the BigBlueButton server begins when a front-end sends a ```create``` API request to the BigBlueButton server.  Once a room is created (the ```create``` request succeeded), users can join the session and interact within the session.  The session ends (and is cleared from the server's memory) when the last person leaves, whereupon BigBlueButton clears the session from memory.

 In contrast, BigBlueButton does not create a video file for playback.  Video files for a three hour lecture can get very large.  Instead, BigBlueButton creates an HTML5 page that references PNG images and audio, and time indexes the PNG images against the audio to match their display in the session.  The result is the source playback files are very small and can be hosted on any web server.  The drawback is there will be a pause for the browser to download all this content, but, once downloaded, there is no more load on the web server.
