Miracast enables anyone with an Android phone to mirror their screen on a properly equipped display to share photos, videos, or presentations right from their device. However, some security experts are concerned about the risk of having sensitive content such as financial information being sent over these types of wireless networks. To address these risks, you should look for a product that has:.
- 128-bit encryption on wireless transmissions- Ability to operate outside the corporate network- Detailed security certifications and documentationsMiracast is designed as a peer-to-peer network, which has its advantages and disadvantages for many IT managers and security experts. Although it was initially designed as a consumer product to stream videos, it has become a popular wireless screen mirroring protocol. The problem is – many providers of Miracast receivers provide minimal security protections.The BenQ InstaShow S is a wireless screen mirroring system that supports Miracast and is designed specifically for corporate and classroom collaboration. While it is more expensive than a basic Miracast dongle you might find in an online store – it offers benefits that will be valuable for any collaboration space – especially one where you don’t want others “listening in” or recording your presentations.
InstaShow uses a 128-bit encrypted stream to ensure the security of your content. You can set up the receiver for different types of WPA encryption depending on your security needs.
Many wireless screen mirroring systems depend on your corporate or classroom network to work effectively. While the InstaShow S can be monitored and managed by the corporate LAN, it doesn’t send the content over your network, eliminating the need for a presenter to login to your network to use the wireless system.
The InstaShow S has been tested – and certified - against the known and common threats and techniques used by hackers. The unit also comes with a detailed security white paper regarding the architecture and software used to protect your infrastructure from being used to attack your network or having someone on the internet view your content remotely.
Sometimes it can be difficult to find answers to your questions when trying to find the right wireless screen mirroring system for your business.
