"I was born with a heart defect and had open-heart surgery at age 20. At the time, I was 100% confident in the surgeon's skills, but I was also sure I was going to die. I think surviving this changed me. Every beat became an opportunity to embrace the unknown, experience something new, and be in the moment. So, I dropped my plans to study locally, left my comfort zone to study in the US, and started traveling to every corner of the world. I began to question everything I thought I knew and became hungry for more knowledge, more experiences, more of everything. This hunger extended into my career, and it's why I choose to work in start-ups and scale-ups. I believe it's at the intersection of asking questions, challenging established truths, and taking risks where we can all make a real impact." -     Pernille Moseley, Digital Marketing Leader, from Oslo

At Pexip, we are proud to be among a handful of companies that have received the next-gen cryptographic security certification, FIPS 140-3, established by and for the US Government. For any companies wanting to engage with the US Government, FIPS-validated crypto is non-negotiable. We all know that cyber threats are on the rise, which is why we at Pexip believe that it’s so essential to stay ahead of the latest security standards. Our FIPS 140-3 certification is just one more example of this commitment. Our FIPS 140-3 journey started in 2022, when we partnered with KeyPair Consulting Inc. to incorporate the necessary changes for our security video conferencing system to meet the new and more rigorous standard. 18 months later, we’re here! In his latest blog, our own Joel B. (and resident FIPS expert) shares insight into the importance of FIPS 140-3, what it is, and why certification is so essential.

The requirements when procuring a video conferencing system in the European public sector have changed. Today the key considerations that organizations need to make are a direct result of the increasing cyber risks around the world that threaten critical infrastructure. So, what should be on your requirement list? As you prepare for tender, our own Dr. Dirk Fischer suggests three areas to evaluate. To find out what’s behind each of those requirements, jump into Dirk’s latest blog below. 👇 https://lnkd.in/dQ-uRQNB

Do your national digital sovereignty requirements impact your choice of video conferencing system? For organizations in the public sector, chances are that you need to take digital sovereignty into account when procuring your video meeting solution.  A digitally sovereign video conferencing system ensures that your data remains under your control at all times. And it enables you to avoid technological and commercial lock-in.  We asked our public sector expert in Germany, Dr. Dirk Fischer, to share his experience in delivering video conferencing solutions to federal organizations in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and all countries with strict sovereignty requirements. He takes us through the key considerations and next steps. Check out Dirk's latest blog to get on track towards digital sovereignty in your organization. 👇 https://lnkd.in/dskSxAGP Arild Skiri Isabell Oerder

Video is the way that work is done, which means secure video meetings are paramount – especially in highly regulated industries like healthcare, government, justice and defense. At Pexip, we want to raise awareness about video conferencing security and what goes into protecting confidential data, maintaining full control, and preventing unauthorized access.  We’ve long worked with compliance-focused organizations that have no room for risk, and these experiences have given us unique insight into what these industries require. We’ve channeled all of that knowledge into our latest blog: The complete guide to secure video conferencing. In it you’ll find everything from security mechanisms for meetings to a handy checklist to use when selecting your video conferencing vendor. https://lnkd.in/d8xaMtYP Trond K.

“During my first year of university, I was newly out as a queer woman. I was trying to figure out who I was, and so I joined oSTEM, a group that showed me I could be myself and be successful. And now I’m paying it forward by trying to help others who may feel like I did, through my local oSTEM chapter. I’m very much a 'put the ladder down' rather than 'pull the ladder up' type of person, and I think this comes across in my work as well. My background is a mix of environmental and computer science, which brought me to Pexip, where I’m now a site reliability engineer and Pexip’s representative of the CNCF Technical Advisory Group for Environmental Sustainability. It’s a perfect blend of my passions. My job at Pexip and my dedication to oSTEM come from the same desire. It’s about helping people succeed and even thrive. I want to be there for them as they navigate challenges and find solutions, whether it's handling a software incident or finding the space to be yourself.” - Claire F., Site Reliability Engineer, from Wales
