Zoom stops security patch updates

Η Zoom, μια δημοφιλής υπηρεσία τηλεδιασκέψεων, αναστέλλει όλες τις ενημερώσεις νέων δυνατοτήτων για 90 ημέρες, καθώς ερευνητές ασφαλείας ανακάλυψαν πάρα πολλά to the security and privacy of users. So, the company said it will take a break from adding new features to close security gaps.

According to one Publication on the Zoom app blog, the number of daily active users has skyrocketed and is much higher than ever.

Last December, for example, the company averaged 10 daily active users, while it currently has around 200 million daily active users.

Πριν από μερικούς μήνες η εταιρεία "πιάστηκε" να χρησιμοποιεί κώδικα που επέτρεπε σε ιστοσελίδες να ξεκινήσουν την κάμερά σας χωρίς τη συγκατάθεσή σας. Η εταιρεία επιδιόρθωσε αυτό το πρόβλημα, αλλά οι ερευνητές ασφαλείας ανακάλυψαν περισσότερα θέματα ασφάλειας και ιδιωτικότητας.

The Windows version of the Zoom app has a particularly nasty one which allows to users to steal their Windows credentials. As we also mentioned the Zoom app is not end to end encrypted, παρά το γεγονός ότι το τμήμα marketing αναφέρει ότι είναι. Φυσικά να μην ξεχάσουμε ότι πριν από αυτό, η εταιρεία "πιάστηκε" να sends your data to Facebook, even if you do not use Facebook.

The company says in its blog that they are shocked by the influx of new users and that it designed the Zoom service primarily for business users. The special IT departments of course impose new security measures.

All this sounds encouraging, as long as it becomes a reality.
