Mercury 2.0 security platform

Global leader in solutions for safeguarding corporate communications, Secured Communications, recently announced the release of Mercury 2.0, equipped with a selection of productivity-enhancing and intuitive updates.

The latest update responds to feedback from the enterprise customers of the company, which include businesses from the financial, healthcare, and educational industries. The latest enhancements also include significant improvements to the already highly secured unified platform, which offers high-definition video, encrypted messaging, crystal-clear audio, and file sharing.

According to the Mercury team, the platform was built with a security-first mindset, which allows for the addition of productivity enhancements without compromising on performance or reliability.

Incredible Messaging Security with Mercury

CEO for Secured Solutions, Robert Wilson, said that the team feels very strongly about protecting the security and privacy of all communications, as well as mitigating all kinds of risk. This is why the new version of the Mercury platform is “impenetrable. Period”.

The Mercury 2.0 platform comes with a suite of enhanced networking functions that support secure communications without sacrificing performance. Organisations can rely on Mercury to protect themselves from hacking, data breaches, and more. Already, Secured Communications boasts GDPR, HIPAA, Privacy Shield, and FIPS certifications for Mercury. Additionally, the platform has end-to-end AES 256 encryption, redundant dedicated servers in the UK and US, and a 99.9999% uptime.

The Mercury platform integrates seamlessly into business operations for businesses of all sizes, without the need for extra installations and increased security. Secured Communication also promises to never share or harvest user data.

Taking Security to the Next Level

This latest version of Mercury adds to an already ultra-secure platform with a range of new features for both mobile and desktop users. Customers can now access:

  • Secured calls: Secured Communications has rebuilt call functionality in the platform to provide better speed, clarity, and security on both the mobile and desktop app

  • Call transition to meeting: Users will now be able to transition calls seamlessly into high-definition meetings just with one press of a button
  • Stealth mode: This new functionality allows users to contain their communications within the interface for Mercury for better security. The continuing cooperation of Secure Communications with counterterrorism and law enforcement agencies around the globe supported the development of Stealth mode technology
  • Secured contact improvements: The latest version of Mercury builds on the platform’s existing Secured Contacts system, which makes sure that users are only sharing files and information with the people intended
  • Mercury gatekeeper: This new feature automatically detects and notifies users to approved browsers and more secure peripherals and hardware, allowing for a more private and safe HD video and audio experience
