4.2.6 Security
4.2.6.1 E2EE
E2EE is a feature that ensures data or voice is transferred securely between radios. After encrypted, the voice and
data can be decrypted only by the radio with the same key list. E2EE ensures transmission security, and prevents
call eavesdropping and data interception. E2EE is a paid feature.
The radio supports Software Encryption and Hardware Encryption.
Software Encryption: This encryption utilizes Hytera-defined or DMR standard algorithm to encrypt voice and
data, which is more cost-effective than hardware encryption. Both Hytera E2EE and DMRA E2EE are
available to DMR radio, and Hytera E2EE is available to PDT radio.
Hardware Encryption: This encryption utilizes the encryption card storing the customized encryption key and
algorithm to realize E2EE. This feature is available for PDT radios only.
Software Encryption
To use this feature, you need to complete the following configurations.
Authorize E2EE through Smart MDM
Configure E2EE through Smart MDM
Configure the encryption key and write it into the radio through Smart MDM and KMC (Key Management
Center)
This chapter describes how to configure E2EE only. See 7 Paid Feature License to authorize the radio, and see 6
