The future of work and social interaction is changing due to the coronavirus pandemic. Some will argue that the pandemic is only a catalyst for what was already in motion. Perhaps the only universal consensus at the moment is the need for secure digital tools to use when working remotely. The teleconferencing application MeetFox prioritizes data security to safeguard user data and privacy.
MeetFox data security
Recientemente hemos asistido a un enorme cambio en el uso de herramientas de videoconferencia para el trabajo, las clases y los fines sociales en general. Por ejemplo, los usuarios diarios activos de Zoom pasaron de 10 millones a 200 millones en el primer trimestre de 2020. Las empresas, los gobiernos, las escuelas y las organizaciones que trabajan desde casa contribuyeron al aumento del uso de Zoom.
Sin embargo, este crecimiento ha tenido efectos secundarios. La seguridad de los datos y la privacidad de Zoom suscitan una gran preocupación. Como consecuencia, los fallos de seguridad de la aplicación han hecho que países e instituciones públicas y privadas abandonen Zoom. Alemania, Taiwán, el Congreso de Estados Unidos, la empresa de exploración espacial SpaceX, Google y profesores de Singapur han abandonado Zoom por motivos de seguridad.
Will Zoom recover from this and come back stronger? It's a story for another day. Organizations, companies, individuals, and countries need to find a Zoom alternative, and in general need to choose secure platforms hosted on cheap dedicated servers. The data security-centric MeetFox has the potential to be a market leader in the teleconferencing segment.
Here are some reasons why MeetFox secures user communication.
Seguridad y encriptación
All communication between your browser and MeetFox is transmitted over an encrypted connection using HTTPS and TLS. HTTPS is short for Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure. This secures your web browsing experience.
Llamadas programadas
A scheduled call generates a unique MeetFox link for the consumer. It is sent to the party which scheduled a call via email. MeetFox optionally sends the link to the participants via SMS before the meeting happens.
Acceso a llamadas de vídeo/audio
Se puede acceder a una llamada de vídeo o de audio una hora antes de que comience la cita de Termin , y se puede acceder a ella desde el panel de control del proveedor de Termin . El consumidor recibe también un enlace único para acceder a Termin .
The access link is available until the end of the meeting. MeetFox's meeting access expires when the call fails to take place six hours after it was scheduled to start.
Llamadas grabadas
MeetFox records scheduled 1to1 meeting calls. The meeting provider is the only one who can record the call and change the recording settings before first access to the call. MeetFox informs the consumer that the meeting is being recorded when the call starts, and a red circle appears on the corner of the meeting room page when a recording is in progress.
Moreover, MeetFox uses third-party service provider Twilio for recording. Twilio is a reliable global provider of online communication infrastructure and is GDPR compliant. Calls are recorded via Twilio servers which store the recording on its cloud servers. The recorded call is available to the meeting provider for 30 days. It is then removed from Twilio's cloud servers.
Also, MeetFox does not collect or share your personal information with Twilio. However, MeetFox shares your location with Twilio for the latter to identify the closest media server for low latency.
Habitaciones permanentes
MeetFox permanent rooms for participants work in a way as "Unrecorded 1to1 calls." The calls happen via Twilio media servers.
SMS
MeetFox sends optional reminders to the participants of scheduled calls. The SMS reminder contains information about the meeting details including a unique link to the call. MeetFox uses Twilio for this service. MeetFox shares your phone number with Twilio to enable the sending of SMS reminders.
Tarjetas de crédito
MeetFox uses online payment technology firm Stripe - specifically Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. - for your credit card processing and storage. Stripe is a reliable international company that handles thousands of transactions every day. The financial technology firm is a PCI Service Provider Level 1, which is the strictest level of certification possible for a payment processor.
Una empresa logra este alto nivel de certificación mediante el uso de seguridad de última generación. Stripe cumple con el GDPR.
