Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) provides cloud computing benefits on a subscription basis, and all your company needs is an Internet connection. Read on to learn more about the benefits \u2013 and cybersecurity considerations \u2013 of Unified Communications as a Service.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UCaaS and its Benefits<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) is a way to integrate multiple modes of communication\u2013voice telephony, video conferencing, email, chat and file sharing \u2013 without the need to maintain on-site infrastructure. In this cloud offering, the provider furnishes the infrastructure and data centers, helping clients to convert capital expense to more manageable operating expense. Users can move from one mode of communication to another and access information to serve customers more efficiently. With cloud\u2019s scalability, resources can be provisioned as needed according to demand. Scalability allows users to be added and removed as needed. Even with little doubt about cloud\u2019s benefits, considerations also exist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Considerations in Using UCaaS<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even with numerous benefits, a company needs to consider its own network health as well as the strength of the provider\u2019s network. Not only that, but especially the cybersecurity standards of potential providers needs evaluation. First of all, does your provider\u2019s network have updated antivirus and anti-malware definitions, and operating system patches? Does it have sufficient bandwidth to handle high traffic volumes at peak periods of use? Does your company\u2019s own end-user devices have protection from viruses and malware?\u00a0 Even more important, do potential providers have certain cybersecurity measures in place?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What to Ask a UCaaS Provider<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adopting Unified Communications as a Service presents certain cybersecurity concerns. Data is one of the biggest; businesses are justifiably concerned about their data remaining protected, private and intact. With data from phone calls, web conferencing and other computing resources traveling via the internet, a company runs a greater risk of cyberattack. How can your company protect itself in the cloud? By asking questions of your provider or potential provider. One key concern is data encryption from the network to end-user devices, if it\u2019s encrypted at rest and in transit.. Are the provider\u2019s anti-virus and anti-malware definitions current, along with operating system patches? A provider\u2019s compliance with regulations is vital when your own company is subject to data-handling regulations like HIPAA or GDPR. Regarding access management, your company having strong password practices and multi-factor authentication is a good start. and you can build on this with identity and access management tools from the provider. Users will have as much access to computing resources as needed while still keeping your organization\u2019s data safe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adopting Unified Communications as a Service can be both rewarding and challenging.
