A critical question: Who controls your sensitive communications?
In our first-ever roundtable, Robb Boyd brings together VQ CEO Giles Adams, Excession Events’ Simon Dudley, and Recon Research’s Ira Weinstein to tackle one question:
What happens to your organization’s most sensitive communications once they enter the digital landscape?
Sovereign collaboration: the first line of defense
Nation-state attacks, insider threats, and dependence on foreign cloud providers are leaving defense organizations exposed.
That’s why secure, sovereign collaboration is no longer optional – it’s mission-critical.
Read our latest blog to see how VQ is helping defense organizations worldwide deliver compliant, air-gapped collaboration.

Air-Gap 101
What does “air-gapped” really mean – and why does it matter?
In our latest video, Recon Research’s Ira Weinstein breaks it down and explains why air-gapped networks are critical for organizations handling classified or mission-critical communications.
Feature spotlight: Analytics
Analytics provides real-time dashboards and historical reporting across your Cisco collaboration environment.
It delivers the insights you need to keep mission-critical services running at scale, from monitoring usage to forecasting capacity.
Until next time…
Thanks for staying connected with VQ. We’ll be back next month with more insights and resources to help you deliver secure collaboration on your terms.
