Interactive Broadcast Solution: Now broadcast your events to a wide audience!
For the last three years, we’ve been working with TokBox building Interactive Broadcast Solution (aka IBS), which is a broadcasting application that enables you to create events and to broadcast them live to a large audience. Interactive Broadcast Solution v2.0 is now open source. This means it's public and anyone is now able to clone the repository, test the app, and to contribute with the project by doing pull requests like any other open source project.
Quick Guide: Payments in Telehealth
It is important to consider security for payments in telehealth. Any e-commerce application that handles customer credit card information needs to consider application security, and this applies to telehealth applications as well. In general, there are several types of payments your application might need to consider: Integration with other medical billing systems - This is the most complicated option to consider, but often the ideal solution if a telehealth application is going to be used

Do You Need a HITRUST or Health Information Trust Certification for Telehealth?
An important question to consider with telehealth applications is: Do you need a health information trust certification for telehealth? We already mentioned that HIPAA is not an actual program where you get a framed certificate at the end of the process. To claim HIPAA compliance in your application is certainly a good standard to have, but if you want to go further than that, you may want to consider HITRUST certification. The HITRUST Common Security

Do You Need to Integrate Your Telehealth App?
A question you may ask when building an application is, do you need to integrate your telehealth app? When building your telehealth application, it may be a standalone application. This is the simplest to secure because there is no application interface where private data might be exchanged with outside systems.  However, it’s typical that your telehealth app will need to integrate with other systems. External systems could include: Electronic Medical Record systems Payment, Invoicing, or Billing
How to Make Sure Your Telehealth Video App is HIPAA Compliant
It is important to understand how to make sure your telehealth video app is HIPAA compliant so that your patients' information can be secured properly. For discussion purposes, we will consider a telehealth application where patients may search for doctors and then schedule a video consultation with them. To keep it simple, let’s focus on the healthcare provider directory and the patient’s video consultation. When the patient is booking a consultation with their doctor, these are

[Tutorial] How to Build a Video Conference Application with WebRTC
In this blog post, we will provide a tutorial on how to build a video conference application using webRTC. We will not complicate it too much, it will be a simple one-to-one video conference application using nothing more than the WebRTC APIs and a few other libraries to build a custom signaling server. Let's first make a quick recapitulation of facts before we get started. To do so let's check the following diagram of webRTC
Which Multi-Party WebRTC Option Should You Go With?
With WebRTC, you have a number of options for adding more than one user to the connection in order to make it a multi-party video call. We know that WebRTC provides real time communication using video, audio and data, natively on the browser and through a secure peer-to-peer connection. Of course, you and I both know that we also need signaling and a couple of STUN/TURN servers to do the trick. But in order to
