management controls to protect you and your users.
These security enhancements include:
• Contact search authentication.
• TCP as the default protocol for remote audit logging.
• FIPS mode.
• An improved credentials policy.
• Support for the SHA-2 family of hashes for digital signatures.

For additional information about working with and enabling these security requirements, see the "FIPS 140-2

Note The phone can only store a limited number of Identity Trust List (ITL) files. You need to limit the number
of ITL files that the Cisco Unified Communications Manager can push to the phone. For more information,
