Part Three

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 this episode, Chad speaks with Andrew Evers, CTO of Infrascale, to discuss cloud-based data protection and disaster recovery for SMBs. Andrew has over two decades of experience in automation and product development, and has led teams in information technology, security, and regulated operations for several industries.

As generative AI tools like Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, and Google Gemini become increasingly integrated into our daily workflows, they’re transforming how employees write, code, research, and collaborate. Their efficiency and accessibility make them indispensable in many industries, but their rapid adoption also brings a new layer of risk. Every time a user interacts with one of these platforms by asking a question, pasting in a document, or sharing snippets of proprietary code, there’s potential for sensitive data to slip into environments outside the organization’s control.

Cyber insurance is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity for small-to-midsized businesses (SMBs) in today’s threat landscape. As cyberattacks grow more sophisticated and frequent, finding the right coverage can make or break your organization in the wake of an incident. But shopping for cyber insurance isn’t as simple as picking a policy off the shelf. There’s a maze of coverage options, exclusions, and costs to navigate, and making the wrong choice can leave your business exposed when it matters most.

In this guide, we’ll focus on how SMB leaders, particularly CFOs and other organizational purchasers, can shop for cyber insurance effectively, avoid common pitfalls, and maximize the benefits of a well-chosen policy.
