Stay at home and save the environment with Climate Care Day

 

Now here’s a good idea: every UK office worker spending one day working from home in a bid to alleviate climate change.

Sounds a little crazy? Well, not really. Maybe not every office is equipped to do so, but with the widespread technology now available – such as telephones, fax machines and the Internet – there aren’t many jobs that can’t be performed to a certain extent remotely.

Sadly, we don’t have one of those on the staff so you’ll have to make do with me.  And I haven’t been in a statistics lecture for the fat end of a decade.

Four simple steps to make your conference call secure

Last week we gave you a useful little guide (well, we hope you found it useful) about which features you should have on your conference call phone to get the most out of Powwownow. We thought we’d follow it up with something similar: a guide to how to keep your conference calls secure.

First of all, I should point out that, on the whole, having a conference call is nothing to worry about and ‘tapping’ into conference calls is a very difficult process. Nevertheless, if it’s something you are worried about, there are a few simple security measures that will help bolster the security of your calls.

Follow the steps below for complete peace of mind on your next conference call.
