Salary benchmarks
Our take
Organisations are increasingly utilising instant messaging applications for external and internal communication, as they are a faster and cheaper mode of communication. With this, it becomes increasingly important to secure the messaging infrastructure as these communication environments are less secure.
Zivver offers a secure communications platform for organisations, especially those in regulated industries such as government, law and healthcare, to enable secure communication, namely through email data protection and secure file transfer. Cloud-based secure messaging products and solutions that offer this security is a market expected to grow rapidly - and indeed, Zivver has been recognised as one of the fastest-growing technology companies according to Deloitte.
Similar companies offering solutions for organisation communications include Realtyme and Netsfere. Zivver plans to continue adding other useful features to their product such as digital signatures, secure forms and secure video. It will invest its capital, backed by DN Capital and SmartFin, to continue market expansion in the UK as well as other international markets.
