We know what you might be thinking—it’s just video conferencing, what could they possibly get from my video?
But how many times have you shared documents while on a video conference call? What about just saying confidential information?
And saying “It’ll never happen to me,” pretty much guarantees that it will happen to you (and someone will be hovering over your shoulder saying, “I told you so”).
Think of a secure video conferencing solution as having locks on the door to your home. Even if you’ve never had an intruder, does that mean you don’t need locks?
Of course, it doesn’t. It just means you’ve been lucky.
And with your company, not only is it your own information you may be compromising, but you’re also risking every employee and anyone they have on their insurance—like a spouse or child or family member.
On top of that, if someone hacked into your account, they could do irreversible damage that could ruin your business, which is, obviously, terrible for you and your employees.
Yeah, it’s scary, and it sounds over-the-top and ridiculous, but it happens. In fact, 60% of small businesses that are hacked go bankrupt in six months..1
Lastly, you want to keep your business secure to keep your client’s trust. In recent months, you’ve probably had numerous video meetings with your clients. Maybe you talked about financials or budgets, or maybe you talked about upcoming projects that aren’t yet ready for public view.
If this information were to be made public, it could cost the client a lot of money—and it would probably cost you the relationship, too.
