Ring Launches TAKE Encryption Standard as Default for Cloud Features
Ring has introduced the TAKE encryption standard, which uses rotating keys for temporary cloud-based video decryption to enable features like Smart Alerts while deleting keys within 24 hours. The standard aims to balance privacy protection with functionality, offering an alternative to end-to-end encryption.
Ring says users can still opt for end-to-end encryption.
