secure board communication

Boards of directors require efficient communication to set the corporation’s goals and assist in achieving the targets. Their communications could expose confidential information including financial data that could prove disastrous in the wrong hands.

Secure communication between boards is essential, especially with the changing nature of business. In order to achieve this, boards must act and implement secure collaboration tools, such as board portals and real-time messaging platforms. It’s also important for boards to be able monitor and evaluate their own governance performance, including their methods for secure communication.

A portal for boards, for example, which allows an effortless transition from informal to formal communication channels, such as group chats, emails and texting, is essential to ensure secure communications. This type of software can provide a safe, private method to collaborate on documents and allow easy file sharing and real-time discussions. It should include features that support granular controls for access and deletion, as well as security protocols for encryption and backup.

A secure board portal is crucial but equally important are reliable instant messaging apps and meeting scheduling software. These tools should be easy to use, similar to popular email, texting or phone apps. They should also come with additional security features, for example the ability of cancellation of messages and preset contacts. They should also automatically send read notifications and an “view-only attachment” option that blocks downloading, exporting, screen captures, and forwarding. Furthermore they should be backed across geographically dispersed locations to prevent loss of data.
