Primarily I'm concerned with the encryption methods available with Jabber for Iphone, but I figured I'd lump android in as well. My primary concern is that messaging is required to be HIPAA compliant. Can anyone point me in the direction to the documentation that explains the encryption methods for Iphone Jabber? Thanks in advance.

I had assumed it was SSL/TLS based on Wireshark. I've had to disable TLS via the jabber-config.xml to do lab testing/troubleshooting previously.
