MURAL app for Microsoft Teams secured by Microsoft 365 certification

MURAL, a collaborative intelligence company, announced yesterday that the recently launched MURAL app® for Microsoft Teams is the first application in the visual collaboration category to achieve Microsoft 365 certification.

The Microsoft 365 certification is designed to show customers that an application has been vetted against controls derived from leading industry standard frameworks and that there are strong security and compliance practices in place to protect customer data. As cybersecurity threats and concerns have grown, this certification reaffirms MURAL’s commitment to meeting and exceeding customer expectations with enterprise-level security and compliance.

MURAL, also a strategic partner of the Microsoft for Startups program, is centered around a shared collaboration space designed to seamlessly integrate creative teamwork into Microsoft Teams. MURAL transforms collaboration by connecting teams to unlock their genius – be it remote, hybrid, synchronous or asynchronous. The company currently supports 95 percent of Fortune 100 companies, including IBM and Intuit.

“Getting the Microsoft 365 certification is a great validation and a true testament to the security of MURAL’s platform,” said Richard Borenstein, Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at MURAL. “It’s a seal of approval from the industry leader in collaboration software, so teams can rest assured that their data is safe with us. As the first visual collaboration platform to receive this award, MURAL is committed to fostering innovation within the Microsoft ecosystem to drive creativity , improve collaboration and teamwork.”

This certification ensures that the MURAL app for Microsoft Teams offers the following benefits:

• More confidence – MURAL App for Microsoft Teams takes strict steps to ensure member data is protected.
• Trusted Signal – This certification is a confirmation from Microsoft that the MURAL app is trusted and has strong security to reduce the risk to customers.

“Microsoft 365 certification assures customers that an application has been assessed against a comprehensive set of security and compliance checks,” said Yaron Hezroni, Principal Group Product Manager for Teams Ecosystem at Microsoft. “We are pleased that MURAL has been awarded the Microsoft 365 certification badge, demonstrating their commitment to protecting customer data on the Microsoft Teams platform.”

In September 2021, MURAL gave teams around the world the ability to bring a shared collaboration space directly to any channel, chat, meeting invite or live video meeting with the launch of the MURAL app® for Microsoft Teams . Mural’s integration into Microsoft Teams gave meeting participants from global enterprises to nascent startups the ability to collaborate visually using digital sticky notes, images, drawings, diagrams, and more. MURAL has also been marked as an early adopter for Microsoft’s new collaborative application capabilities for the modern workplace, which integrate MURAL seamlessly into Microsoft Outlook and Office 365 platforms.

MURAL continuously invests in best-of-breed security practices and compliance controls to meet the evolving needs of global businesses. Mural’s Microsoft 365 certification builds on the company’s existing capabilities, including active SOC2 Type 2 and ISO 9001 certifications.
