With the rapid rise of remote workforces and distance learning, secure video has quickly become an essential collaboration medium. Users need simple ways to quickly discover and share important knowledge. The new features include:

• Tags. Content creators and administrators can now apply tags to videos and manage the set of tags available on their site. From the library and the viewer interfaces, users can see the tags applied to each video and find other tagged videos with a single click.

• Sharing moments in a video. Viewers can easily share a link to a specific point in a video right from the viewer interface. As long as the sharing recipient has permission to view the video, they will be taken to the exact moment in the video that was shared. This feature is especially useful for employees and students collaborating on projects or sharing moments from recorded meetings.

• Subscriptions. Viewers can now subscribe to secure videos from specific creators, tags, and folders, surfacing the content that is most important to them right on their homepage.
