The connections between JCR/mu-conference and the jabberd router is not 
secure. However, most systems are set up with mu-conference and jabberd2 
running on the same server. This means the conversations can only be 
intercepted if someone is logged into your jabber server and is able to 
"sniff" the traffic between JCR/mu-conference and the jabberd router 
process.
