This is an analyst post assessing Zoom's security posture during a surge in usage: it reviews disruptive 'Zoombombing' incidents, application-level vulnerabilities and insecure development practices, and weaknesses in Zoom's encryption architecture while noting Zoom's rapid mitigation efforts, increased security resources, and guidance for safer use; the conclusion is that Zoom is acceptable for most corporate and personal use but carries low-to-moderate privacy and disruption risks.
