Mission-critical collaboration for defense and intelligence
Deliver resilient, sovereign conferencing with Cisco equipment in self-hosted, air-gapped or hybrid environments

In the face of increasingly sophisticated attacks, it’s never been more important to protect national and regional defense communications. Cloud-based systems or platforms in other jurisdictions won’t meet the security or resilience requirements of the most sensitive meetings.
VQ Conference Manager enables the defense and intelligence community to reliably deploy and run enterprise-class self-hosted or air-gapped conferencing on Cisco – or hybrid platforms that combine with Webex or Microsoft Teams.
