Part One

When most people hear “CIA,” they think of government intelligence. In cybersecurity, though, the CIA Triad stands for something every organization depends on: Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. These three principles form the foundation of how businesses protect and manage information and they support trust between you, your customers, and your partners.

This first part in our series dives into Confidentiality, the concept of protecting sensitive business data from falling into the wrong hands. When confidentiality breaks down, it’s not just an IT problem; it’s a business risk that can lead to financial loss, legal exposure, and reputational damage.

In Part Two of this series, we established the technical foundation for securing VoIP and messaging systems. The next challenge is turning that foundation into consistent, repeatable behavior across the organization. If expectations, workflows, and ownership aren’t clearly defined, security initiatives can stall.

To make communication security part of how your organization runs day-to-day, you need policies people can follow, controls that enforce those policies reliably, and a process for reviewing and adapting over time.

Part Two

In Part One of this series, we explored why secure messaging and VOIP matter, and how communication channels have become one of the most overlooked attack surfaces in modern organizations. Now that we understand why these tools are a critical part of your security posture, it’s time to look at how to strengthen them.

Every business, from enterprise to SMB, relies on voice and messaging platforms to stay connected. But without a proper security foundation, even the most advanced tools can become a liability.

Part One

You may think of email, firewalls, or endpoint protection when you imagine your security perimeter. But in today’s world, voice calls, chat apps, and real-time collaboration tools are equally rich targets for attack. Every call, every message, and every digital conversation is a potential point of compromise. Secure messaging and VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) create a critical barrier between your systems and your people, the final line of defense. By securing how your teams communicate, you help ensure that human trust can’t be turned into an attacker’s greatest weapon.

In today’s cybersecurity landscape, organizations should invest heavily in firewalls, endpoint detection, zero-trust architectures, intrusion detection systems, SIEM platforms, and strong encryption. These barriers are essential, and do stop many attacks. But there’s one attack vector that routinely bypasses technical defenses: social engineering.

At the end of the day, your employees are the last line of defense for when technology can’t recognize deception. If your employees are not trained, vigilant, and aligned with security protocols, a single manipulated click or crafty email can lead to devastating results.

On September 17th, PulseOne hosted our live Copilot event—The AI Advantage: Unleashing Copilot Agents Across Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365—at Microsoft’s Tech Center in Irvine. With clear skies and a full room of attendees, the day was a great opportunity to learn, connect, and explore how AI is transforming the way we work. We’d like to extend our thanks to everyone who joined us in person and to those who supported behind the scenes. For those who couldn’t attend, here’s a detailed look back at the highlights.

As artificial intelligence continues to transform the business landscape, today’s CEOs face critical decisions surrounding AI's role in the workplace. To navigate this rapidly evolving environment, it’s essential for leaders to have a clear grasp of the most important AI terminology and foundational concepts. Understanding what AI models are, what they can actually deliver for your business, the considerations for their secure implementation, and how to strategically leverage these technologies are now critical skills for executive leadership.

Join PulseOne on September 17th for a live event at the Microsoft Tech Center in Irvine, "The AI Advantage: Unleashing Copilot Agents Across Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365". The event will feature speakers from Microsoft, Queue Associates, AvePoint, TouchBrick, and PulseOne to deliver insights and real-world strategies for integrating Copilot capabilities into your Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365 workflows.

In this episode, Chad talks with Jason Melo, CTO and Co-Founder of TouchBrick, to explore its solution that strengthens organizational data security when working with generative AI chatbots. Jason holds over 15 years of expertise in developing secure, scalable systems across web, mobile, AI, blockchain, and cloud platforms.

Part 4 of 4:

As small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) increasingly leverage data for AI initiatives, they face a critical challenge: how to utilize sensitive information while maintaining privacy, security, and compliance. Traditional approaches like redaction—simply removing or masking sensitive elements—often strip data of its utility for AI training and analysis.
