If your email provider admits that they can and do read your emails, do you trust that they can keep your emails and files safe from hackers? (This is hyper relevant with the recent WhatsApp “privacy policy update” news – wait, I thought it was end-to-end encrypted?). īefore diving in, let’s start by listing some common-sense items: And we’re not talking superficial hacks like websites or blogs being defaced, we’re talking about stolen customer passwords or data, and breeches of the applications themselves. When it comes to protecting your data and your privacy, these companies are failing you miserably.īut all of these companies have been hacked, some more than once, and they continue using insecure technologies to “protect” your data. Slack, Microsoft Teams, Box, Dropbox, Gmail and others. Most tech and app companies, even the ones touting buzzwords like “encryption,” are riddled with security vulnerabilities that hackers regularly take advantage of.Ĭlearly you’re in need of a better solution, and that’s exactly why we built ClearChat. These apps you’re relying on to protect your conversations and files are using insecure technology, often with purposely built-in backdoors (mostly used for literally spying on you and selling your information to marketers), and they’re leaving you exposed. You are sharing and storing financials, proprietary info, passwords, even just ordinary conversations between co-workers or friends that – if they got out or were read out of context – could make you look really really bad (or even result in lawsuits). You, and your team at work, share a lot of sensitive information and files via email, Slack and dozens of other insecure apps everyday. Yes, trillion.Īnd hackers aren’t just interested in stealing credit card numbers, identities and government secrets, no, theft of confidential business information is the third highest cost of these attacks. Yikes.Īnd it gets worse, because those hacks are costly.īy 2019 cyberattacks will cost businesses $2.1 trillion dollars in losses. That means there’s a good chance, a 70% chance, that your company was hacked last year without you knowing it. Most victims aren’t even aware that they’ve suffered a security breach. Organizations of all types and sizes are targeted by hackers – not just the “big guys.” At 61%, the majority of attacks actually target companies classified as Startup through Medium sized business (a category your employer most likely falls into). In fact, last year 70% of businesses were hacked. 
They’ve all had their emails, and consequently organizations, hacked within in the last year. What do the President of the United States, executives from Fortune 500 giant Sony, unicorn startup SnapChat, the Director of the CIA and officials from the Pentagon all have in common? Your Privacy & Security at Work (is Lacking)
In this post we’re going to talk about how the communication, file sharing and file storage layers have become a huge security vulnerability for organizations of all sizes, why, and what you can do about it. Data security, privacy and access integrity has never been more at risk.
