| Lawyers can use self-destructing video mail technology to protect the privacy of their clients.
Email security and privacy is a huge issue. The
major email providers (Yahoo mail, Gmail, Hotmail, etc.) focus on adding more
storage. If anything, they are increasing our liability by indexing and
storing messages for decades.
When communicating with clients, a constant worry is normal email cannot be destroyed. People do not know where the information
they are sending is being stored and when, if ever, it is deleted. Such unknowns make it
possible for seemingly long-gone data to turn up in a court under the order of a subpoena, or
worse, in the hands of a hacker. A patent attorney working with an entrepreneur needs to be absolutely sure their conversations are secure.
Simply encrypting the data can be risky in the long term. The data can be exposed years later, for example, by
legal actions that force an individual or company to reveal the
encryption key. Current trends in the computing and legal landscapes
are making the problem more widespread.
Self-destructing video mail is a message that vanishes or becomes unreadable after a certain length of time or certain number of views. This feature protects communication between two trusted parties, and provides the same privacy for email that people expect for a phone conversation. Don’t
risk having your sensitive information falling into the wrong hands, let it be read and
erased. If someone clicks on a link to a mailVU message which has self
destructed, they're simply told that the message does not exist. Once
a mailVU video mail self destructs, the link no longer works.
