Hi, mak1988, and welcome to the Community!

I share your concern regarding anything related to the internet. Background noise or other issues such as an unclear picture or garbled voices during a call, whether it be audio or video, is not unusual. Please review this information, particularly the link to Skype's Security Center: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA143/Is-Skype-secure

Be proactive; maintain your computer's or device's operating system by installing updates and patches as they are released, and regularly run an anti-virus/spyware/malware program that you keep the virus signatures updated on as well.

Best regards,
