Secure Alternative to Webex, Zoom, and Co.: luckycloud Launches Solution for Online Meetings
Recently, the weekly newspaper "Die Zeit" revealed that hundreds of thousands of online meetings by authorities and companies in several European countries were potentially accessible to the public. Particularly sensitive was the fact that meetings hosted on Webex were often accessible without passwords, exposing sensitive information. Webex, a video conferencing software similar to Zoom or Microsoft Teams, plays a central role in the public sector.
The reason lies in the marketing by the manufacturer Cisco, which promotes its software as particularly secure—and in the recommendations of official bodies: In Germany, for example, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) explicitly recommends the use of Webex in federal authorities.
Security Vulnerabilities Threaten Business Data
However, the provider has been criticized multiple times in recent months due to IT security vulnerabilities. Particularly in March, an incident attracted attention when the chief editor of the Russian state broadcaster RT published a recording of a Webex conversation involving four high-ranking officers of the German Air Force. These and other security vulnerabilities raise the urgent question: Is such a recommendation still valid? Jens Zimmermann, digital policy spokesperson for the SPD parliamentary group, advocates moving away from large providers like Cisco and instead using European open-source options.
Despite the closure of the current security gap, many users rightfully remain skeptical about the video conferencing platform, and many companies are asking themselves how dependent they want to be on individual major providers in the future. They face the challenge of providing secure communication solutions for their teams. This is where luckycloud comes into play, offering a secure alternative with its chat and meeting solutions.
