In a UK first, AudioCodes and Konekt are working together to drive improved security for organisations seeking to protect their data sovereignty and privacy across their Zoom Phone voice traffic. In an increasingly uncertain world, this is a crucial requirement for many UK organisations in the public sector such as local government, central government, defence and healthcare, but also heavily regulated private sectors such as finance, banking and insurance.

What are AudioCodes and Konekt doing exactly?

AudioCodes and Konekt, together with Zoom, are helping UK organisations ensure that their voice and collaboration calls are hosted on a dedicated UK Zoom cluster, ensuring that all traffic and all data associated with it, is kept in the UK. This protection of data sovereignty within UK borders is an increasing requirement in security-conscious and regulated sectors.  

This initiative leverages Zoom’s new, dedicated UK-based cluster for their UCaaS collaboration service (Zoom UK01 V3).

Thanks to its AudioCodes Live Platform UCaaS voice service delivery solution and its support for Zoom Provider Exchange V3, AudioCodes is the first partner to provide voice integration with this dedicated Zoom UK cluster. The solution supports both Zoom Phone and Zoom Contact Center with Zoom-certified, secure voice calling. This builds on an ongoing partnership with Zoom, as AudioCodes is already fully integrated with Zoom’s EU cluster serving organisations in the European Union.

Andy Macdonald, UKI Country Manager for AudioCodes comments:

“As a global leader in voice calling and voice AI, we are delighted to be working with Konekt and Zoom to help reassure UK-based organisations that their voice traffic and data sovereignty is hosted securely on Zoom’s dedicated UK cluster.”

Joel Chimoindes, CEO at Konekt, adds:

“As a cloud communications and services leader, we have a long-standing relationship with both AudioCodes and Zoom to deliver high quality voice services. AudioCodes Live Platform, combined with Zoom’s dedicated UK voice cluster, is the ideal solution for organisations requiring the highest level of voice security and reliability in the UK”.

 

When is this available?

The service is available now via Konekt.
