A Team Space in Webex persists until it is closed by the administrator. Webex Teams allows for continuous and indefinite storage of team spaces and their associated content, such as messages, files, and whiteboards, for as long as needed. The retention policy can be customized by each customer, but in general, a Team Space will remain active and available until an administrator decides to delete or close it.

Webex Teams security functions by using a Key Management Service (KMS) to handle and distribute encryption keys securely. The KMS is responsible for generating, storing, and providing access to encryption keys, ensuring that all data, including messages, files, and content within Webex Teams, is encrypted both at rest and in transit. This method ensures that only authorized users have access to the content, and even Cisco itself cannot decrypt the data without the appropriate keys, providing end-to-end security and privacy.

Cisco Proximity is a feature that allows users to pair their devices (such as laptops, tablets, or smartphones) with Cisco room devices wirelessly and share content without the need for cables or additional adapters. This enhances meeting experiences by making it easy to present and share information directly from personal devices to the room's display system.

Cisco Commerce Workspace (CCW) provides partners with the functionality to quote and transact orders for a variety of Cisco offerings, including traditional resale, subscription-based services, and annuity orders. This platform allows partners to manage their transactions, configure solutions, and provide pricing and quotes for different types of Cisco products and services.

Webex Teams end-to-end encryption ensures that all messages and files are encrypted on the client side before being sent to the Webex Cloud and other clients. This process protects the confidentiality and integrity of the data throughout its transit. Encrypted content is only decrypted on the recipient's device, preventing unauthorized access by intermediaries, including Cisco.
