Is Zoom Secure?
When considering whether or not this settlement calls into question the security of Zoom, it’s important to note that the infractions occurred between March 2020 and May 2020. If you remember, that was the start of the global pandemic, which saw millions upon millions of users flocking to Zoom, a relatively unknown service at the time.
This unprecedented influx of users caused a lot of security problems for Zoom, including everything from lost data and “Zoom bombing,” which saw hackers accessing private meetings they were not invited to. So, does this mean that Zoom is secure enough to handle meetings in 2023?
Since all that pandemic madness, Zoom has substantially bolstered security, adding end-to-end encryption and a wide range of other security improvements to keep user data safe. All that to say, Zoom is secure enough to use in 2023, and with a bit of extra money in your pocket, you should even be able to afford a Zoom paid plan.
