NETSFERE RECOGNISED LEADING SECURE ENTERPRISE MESSAGING PLATFORM

KUALA LUMPUR, March 17 -- NetSfere, a global provider of next-generation secure and compliant messaging and mobility solutions has been named the leading Secure Enterprise Messaging platform.

“We are pleased to be named in the latest 451 Research report, alongside key industry players enabling secure communications for distributed and mobile workers.

“With WhatsApp’s latest privacy policy updates, implementing a tool like NetSfere has never been more important,” said NetSfere President and Chief Executive Officer, Anurag Lal in a statement.

In a recent report, analyst firm 451 Research S&P Global Market Intelligence warns that the privacy policy backlash recently experienced by WhatsApp is a wake-up call for businesses, highlighting the relevance that secure enterprise communications will have post-COVID-19.

Nearly a year since the outbreak, organisations are shifting their focus to the long-term and have encountered new challenges, such as addressing the complexities that enabling secure remote collaboration entails.

While the use of consumer over-the-top (OTT) messaging apps has remained an ongoing issue in the workplace for several years, the shift to remote work makes this an even more pressing issue.

According to the report, over 74 per cent of respondents to 451 Research’s recent informational security survey noted they are “somewhat (52 per cent) or very concerned (22 per cent) about the level of security in collaboration tools that remote workers are using”.

The report goes on to note that tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams do still collect user’s data, although it looks different than how consumer grade apps do. However, NetSfere’s strict no data collection approach shines through as the strongest option.
