Join host Kristian McCann and Ari Applbaum, VP of Marketing at LeapXpert, as they dive deep into the evolving security landscape of enterprise messaging.
With messaging apps like WhatsApp, WeChat, and iMessage now integral to daily business communications, understanding the risks and solutions is more critical than ever. This insightful conversation unpacks why every business leader, IT professional, and compliance officer should pay attention to the hidden vulnerabilities in off-channel messaging.
In this revealing interview, Applbaum explains why messaging has become the new frontline for cyber threats and how most businesses can bring compliance through unification of their communications. The discussion covers:
- The primary security risks when employees use consumer messaging apps for business, including phishing, malware, and data leakage.
- How hackers exploit gaps in governance and the dangers of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) culture.
- Common misconceptions about end-to-end encryption, device management, and compliance with disappearing messages.
- The severe legal, compliance, and reputational consequences of failing to secure messaging channels.
