iLinc Web Conferencing Security
Security is top of mind for today's Web conferencing users. Especially if you're in a corporate environment where financial data, strategies, human resource info, and other sensitive data may be used in session.
Web conferencing security concerns typically fall into two general categories:
- Potentially sensitive information which may be stored in data warehouses on servers used to act as "front-ends" to Web conferencing solutions
- Actual data that may be transmitted once a live event has been joined (audio, video, real-time content, live chat, etc).
Unique, Industry-leading Security Protections
iLinc understands and fully addresses your concerns about the security of the data, audio, and video information that may be stored and/or transmitted across networks during online sessions or during the administration of such services.
The iLinc product suite implements AES in a unique fashion that leads the industry in security and efficiency.
- All real-time communications data is encrypted with a key at the client side prior to being placed on the network.
- The key for use in this encryption is downloaded using SSL from the server and is thus secured in itself.
- The key is used to encrypt all live session data, which is then passed through the server without decryption, to other clients in live sessions, where it is decrypted and played or displayed.
The bottom line is that iLinc and its use of AES represents the latest standard in encryption technology. When combined with SSL for front-end communications, the two solutions combine to provide an entirely secure and yet very efficient method for encrypting data and transactions in a real-time Web conferencing solution.
