As the inventors of the Secure Shell protocol, we at SSH Communications Security have been at the forefront of creating the secure internet as we know it today. With almost 30 years of experience and expertise in cybersecurity, we continue to drive innovation of our products and the industry to protect servers and databases. Our mindset and approach are simple: security first.
Now, we’re bringing the same level of protection to secure business communications and business communications platforms.
Not all business communication apps are secure
Since their invention, instant communication apps have quickly become popular – there's no doubt about that. Nowadays, they’re also essential tools for remote work and daily business interactions (especially since the pandemic).
But the increased adoption of messaging apps didn’t go unnoticed by cybercriminals, new and more sophisticated cyber threats targeting these platforms are on the rise since.
Malicious actors are fully aware of the value of the data exchanged through these channels and have been doubling their efforts to breach the systems, proving that the security measures of many business communication platforms aren’t enough.
Recent high-profile incidents have highlighted the vulnerabilities of such regular communication tools. For example, Slack had a security incident where unauthorized access to some of its code repositories was disclosed.
Then, a hacking group leaked thousands of Disney’s internal messaging channels, revealing sensitive information such as unreleased projects, raw images, computer codes, and logins.
A security flaw in Microsoft Teams was brought to light by cybersecurity analysts from Vectra. It allows attackers to log into other people’s accounts, including those protected with multi-factor authentication. The problem lies in the Teams desktop app storing user authentication tokens in cleartext which can be then stolen by anyone with local access.
In 2024, businesses using Slack went into panic mode again, when they discovered that Slack had been using their data to train AI and machine learning models without their knowledge by making the opt-in a default option.
End-to-end encryption & data sovereignty
As businesses move more and more of their operations online, securing communications is more critical than ever. Organizations must move beyond treating business communication security as a "nice-to-have" and recognize it as a necessity. Thus, finding a trustworthy solution is crucial.
Unlike other business communication tools that lack core security features, such as end-to-end encryption or on-premises options, our approach security-first. As Rami Raulas, Interim CEO at SSH Communications Security, explains: "Everything is encrypted to prevent data leakage to external parties. With growing concerns around data sovereignty, it's important to extend our protection from servers and databases to business communication platforms. This approach is unique to us. For instance, all files are individually encrypted, making them secure from breaches and misuse.”
Our solution emphasizes protecting data exchanged between individuals. By implementing end-to-end encryption, we ensure that only authorized individuals can access the data, maintaining data sovereignty and security.
