5 Steps for Secure Video Conferencing with DialTM

5 Steps for Secure Video Conferencing with DialTM.

Do you know that according to Cyber Security Ventures cybersecurity crimes will account for a loss of 6 trillion dollars by 2021? If you don't believe in estimations then the next sentence will make you sweat for sure. 3 trillion dollars- the amount vanished in 2015 due to cybercrimes. And this is going to double next year.

But why are we telling you this? Does it matter to you? If you are using any device that holds private information and can connect to a network, you should be concerned about this.

Since cybersecurity is a huge topic, we will be limited to the current and immediate cyber challenge that every company is facing today- secure video conferencing during the COVID-19 crisis.

COVID-19 has made us bound within the walls. This has forced companies and organizations to go digital and use collaborative software such as video conferencing system to be able to work from home.

Along with the immediate and long-term benefits that it unlocks, video conferencing has also increased the vulnerability of our important data that cybercriminals can exploit.

Hey but don't worry. With DialTM by your side, you don't need to shut your business to stay secure. You just need to know how secure is video conferencing with DialTM

DialTM protocols for secure communication

Whenever you provide sensitive data on an online meeting, do you realize to check whether the application is SSL secured? But what is SSL anyway?

SSL stands for secure sockets layer. It encrypts your sensitive data into a format that an attacker can’t understand without decrypting it with a key. If a website is SSL encryption protected, its URL would have “https” instead of “http”.

DialTM, an AES 256-bit encrypted application

Check the level of AES data encryption your video conferencing software provides. AES is an abbreviation for Advanced Encryption Standard and it is a widely accepted way to encrypt the data. Typically, there are 4 levels of AES encryption- 56-bit, 128-bit, 192-bit, and 256- bit.

256-bit AES encryption is the most secure out of these 4 levels. If your data is secured with 256-bit encryption then it will take 3.31*10^56 years to be cracked by anyone who doesn't have the key! And just to remind you- average human lifespan is 79 years and the earth too is only 4.543*10^9 years old.

DialTM, a domain-based approach for security

The domain-based approach gives the system administrator the power to give levels of permission to each type of participant. Thus, anyone who doesn't have the approval of video conferencing will have to pass through the system administrator to get permission.

With various levels of data security on DialTM, you can be reassured that every action is monitored and thus greatly reduces the chances of being breached. As an organization, you can set a few video conferencing guidelines for that extra layer of security that DialTM supports.

Opt for password-protected private meetings

Relax! We do not mean to say that open meetings on DialTM are completely unsafe. There are various layers of security that guard your data as already mentioned above. We want you to be extra careful about the possibilities that can act against you.

Just requiring a meeting ID to enter a private video conference is like giving an invitation to attackers for breaching your privacy and stealing your data. There can be situations in which meeting ID can be stolen or accidentally shared with someone who has malicious intentions. So clearly this is not enough.

Thus, it is always a better practice to secure video chats that are confidential with a password. This adds an extra layer of security to be breached to gain access to your meetings.

Note: - Password-protect only your private and confidential meetings, not public events like webinars as it can decrease the number of participants.

Other Guidelines

These guidelines make everyone more serious about their actions and thus helps to build a united action against attackers.

The policy can include guidelines such as verifying all attendees before starting a private meeting, recording a call after informing everyone or getting permission from all participants, etc.

At DialTM, we understand your security needs and thus we have brought to you a secured environment for communication through our video conferencing software. Our system is not only secured and provides smooth communication but also is integrated with artificial intelligence to make the communication effective. Whether it is a public conference like a webinar or a confidential private meeting, DialTM safeguards you well. So, stay connected, stay secure with DialTM.
