What you need to know about ClickShare security

At ClickShare, we take security very seriously and adhere to stringent world-renowned standards. With our products, you can rest assured you benefit from the highest levels of security, privacy, and confidentiality.

ClickShare is built to make collaboration seamless and secure. Every meeting, whether in-room or remote, involves sensitive data – presentations, confidential discussions, and shared files.

Security breaches in this environment can damage trust, compliance, and reputation.

That’s why security is at the core of ClickShare’s DNA. From product design to firmware updates, from independent certifications to responsible vulnerability disclosure, Barco ClickShare solutions deliver effortless collaboration without compromising IT security standards.

Why security matters in the collaboration industry?

Security is no longer just an IT checkbox – it is a business-critical priority. According to IDC, over 50% of IT leaders rank security as the top factor when selecting workplace technology. Hybrid work only amplifies this need: more devices, more networks, more risks.

Yet, meeting room technology also needs to be simple and intuitive for end users. If security comes at the expense of usability, employees will find workarounds, creating even greater risks.

ClickShare is designed to balance user convenience with IT-grade protection, ensuring adoption by employees and confidence for IT leaders.

Certifications & compliance

ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) are globally recognized bodies that establish international standards across industries. Their standards, developed through consensus among experts worldwide, provide trusted benchmarks for quality, safety, and best practices, including in information security management.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the cornerstone of information security management. It provides a framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS).

Compliance with this standard demonstrates that a company has identified its security risks and put in place preventative measures to manage or reduce them. It’s a clear signal to stakeholders that the organization takes information security seriously.

SGS certification: ETSI EN 303 645 compliant

The ClickShare CX-50 2nd gen has been certified by SGS to be ETSI EN 303 645 compliant.​

The ETSI EN 303 645 Cyber Security for Consumer Internet of Things is one of the first cohesive global standards for IoT cybersecurity, and its comprehensiveness is one reason why it has emerged as the gold standard in this space. ​

Choosing products that meet the ETSI EN 303 645 standard reduces  potential consumer IoT cybersecurity risks.

Security by design

From the very beginning, ClickShare adopted a security-by-design philosophy. Every feature, workflow, and update is evaluated against potential risks before release.

Our guiding principles include:

  • Threat modeling: every product feature undergoes security assessment
  • Secure development lifecycle: coding standards and peer reviews are aligned with ISO/IEC requirements
  • Flexible security levels: IT teams can configure ClickShare using three pre-defined security levels – security levels 1, 2, and 3 – to match the security configuration to their organization's requirements.
  • Privacy by design: no data is stored or shared unnecessarily
