Use of the platform is free for video conferences of up to 100 participants at once, with a 40-minute time limit. There is a 10-minute timeout period between free 40-minute meetings. For longer or larger conferences with more features, paid subscriptions are available. Features geared towards business conferences, such as Zoom Rooms, are also available.[22][25][26]Up to 49 people can be seen on adesktoporlaptopscreen at once,[27]up to 4 people per screen iniPhoneandAndroidmobile phonesandtablet computers,and up to 16 people per screen oniPad.
Zoom security features include password-protected meetings, user authentication, waiting rooms, locked meetings, disabling participant screen sharing, randomly generated IDs, and the ability for the host to remove disruptive attendees.[28]As of June 2020, Zoom began offering end-to-end encryption to business and enterprise users, withAES 256GCMencryption enabled for all users.[29]In October 2020, Zoom added end-to-end encryption for free and paid users. It is available on all platforms, except for the official Zoom web client.[30][31]
Zoom also offers a transcription service usingOtter.aisoftware that allows businesses to store transcriptions of the Zoom meetings online and search them, including separating and labeling different speakers.[32]

New features include the ability to move around video windows in gallery view, pin video windows to be spotlighted; improved keyboard shortcuts; new tools to adjust the size of closed captioning text; and sign language interpreters' windows can now sit directly next to the speaker.[37]
In October 2020 at Zoomtopia, Zoom's annual user conference, the company unveiled OnZoom, a virtual event marketplace with an integrated payment system where users can host and promote free or paid live events.[38][39]With OnZoom, users will be able to schedule and host one-time events or event series for up to 1,000 attendees and sell tickets online.[40]The company also announced Zoom Apps, a feature integrating third-party apps so they can be used within the Zoom interface during meetings. The first such apps were expected to be available around the end of 2020, from companies includingSlack,Salesforce,Dropbox,[38][40]andQatalog.In October 2020, Zoom gave its users better security with an upgrade to end-to-end encryption for its online meetings network.[41]
Also in October 2020, Zoom signed a carrier agreement withGlobal BT Business[42]to offer a fully managed Zoom Meetings service featuring a choice of connectivity and integration with its global voice network.[43]
In February 2021, Zoom added a "virtual receptionist" feature in the Kiosk Mode for Zoom Rooms.

In August 2021, Zoom launched Focus Mode, designed for use in educational settings.[47][48]When active, the mode will hide participants' screens from each other (though they can see each other's names) while the host retains the ability to see everyone's camera stream or screen share.[49]The feature is available across all Zoom accounts, including free ones.[50][51]
In September 2021 at Zoomtopia, the company announced that end-to-end encryption would now be available as an upgrade for Zoom Phone users.

BrownandUzo Aduba.[93][94] Familiarity with Zoom meetings in nation-state diplomatic and bureaucratic circles, partially due to the globalCOVID-19 pandemic,substantially contributed to the efficacy of the Western response to the2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine[95]
Reception
editZoom has been criticized for "security lapses and poor design choices" that have resulted in heightened scrutiny of its software.[96][97]Many of Zoom's issues "surround deliberate features designed to reduce friction in meetings", whichCitizen Labfound to "also, by design, reduce privacy or security".[98][99]In March 2020,New York State Attorney GeneralLetitia Jameslaunched an inquiry into Zoom's privacy and security practices.[100]The inquiry was closed on May 7, 2020, with Zoom not admitting wrongdoing, but agreeing to take added security measures.[101]In April 2020, CEO Yuan apologized for the security issues, stating that some of the issues were a result of Zoom's having been designed for "large institutions with full IT support".[102]He noted that in December 2019, Zoom had a maximum of 10 million daily meeting participants, and in March 2020 the software had more than 200 million daily meeting participants, bringing the company increased challenges.[103]Zoom agreed to focus on data privacy and issue a transparency report.[104][105][106][107]In April 2020, the company released Zoom version 5.0, which addressed a number of the security and privacy concerns. It includes passwords by default, improved encryption, and a new security icon for meetings.[108]In September 2020, Zoom added support fortwo-factor authenticationto its desktop and mobile apps; the security feature was previously Web-only.[109]
As of April 2020, businesses, schools, and government entities who have restricted or prohibited the use of Zoom on their networks includeGoogle,[110]Siemens,[111]theAustralian Defence Force,theGerman Ministry of Foreign Affairs,theIndian Ministry of Home Affairs,SpaceX,and theNew York City Department of Education.[112][113]In May 2020, the New York City Department of Education lifted their ban on Zoom after the company addressed security and privacy concerns.[114]
Privacy
editZoom has been criticized for its privacy and corporate data sharing policies, as well as for enabling video hosts to potentially violate the privacy of those participating in their calls.[115][116][117]
In March 2020, aMotherboardarticle found that the company'siOSapp was sending device analytics data toFacebookon startup, regardless of whether a Facebook account was being used with the service, and without disclosing it to the user.[118]Zoom responded that it had been made aware of the issue and patched the app to remove theSDKafter learning that it was collecting unnecessary device data. The company stated that the SDK was only collecting information on the user's device specifications (such as model names and operating system versions) in order to optimize its service and that it was not collecting personal information.[25][119][120]In the same month, Zoom was sued by a user inU.S. Federal Courtfor illegally and secretly disclosing personal data to third parties, including Facebook.[121]Zoom responded that it "has never sold user data in the past and has no intention of selling users' data going forward".[122]
In April 2020, a Zoom information gathering feature was found that automatically sent user names and email addresses toLinkedIn,allowing some participants to surreptitiously access LinkedIn profile data about other users without their express consent.[123]Soon after, the companies disabled their integration.[124]In May 2020, theFederal Trade Commissionannounced that it was looking into Zoom's privacy practices.[125]The FTC alleged in a complaint[126]that since at least 2016, "Zoom maintained the cryptographic keys that could allow Zoom to access the content of its customers' meetings, did not provide advertised end-to-end encryption, falsely claimedHIPAAcompliance, installed the ZoomOpener webserver without adequate consent, did not uninstall the web server after uninstalling the Zoom App, and secured its Zoom Meetings with a lower level of encryption than promised. "[127]On November 9, 2020, a settlement was reached, requiring the company to stop misrepresenting security features, create aninformation securityprogram, obtain biannual assessments by a third party, and implement additional security measures.[128]
Security
editVulnerabilities
editIn November 2018, a security vulnerability was discovered that allowed a remote unauthenticated attacker to spoofUDPmessages that allowed the attacker to remove attendees from meetings, spoof messages from users, or hijack shared screens.[129][130]The company released fixes shortly after the vulnerability was discovered.[131]In July 2019, security researcher Jonathan Leitschuh disclosed azero-dayvulnerability allowing any website to force amacOSuser to join a Zoom call, with theirvideo cameraactivated, without the user's permission.[132]Attempts to uninstall the Zoom client on macOS would prompt the software to re-install automatically in the background using a hidden web server that was set up on the machine during the first installation so that it remains active even after attempting to remove the client. After receiving public criticism, Zoom removed the vulnerability and the hidden webserver to allow complete uninstallation.[133]In April 2020, security researchers found vulnerabilities whereWindowsusers'credentialscould be exposed.[134][135]Another vulnerability allowing unprompted access to cameras and microphones was made public.[136][137]Zoom issued a fix in April 2020.[138]
Motherboard reported that there were two Zoomzero-daysfor macOS and Windows respectively, selling for $500,000, on April 15, 2020.[139]Security bug brokers were selling access to Zoom security flaws that could allow remote access into users' computers.[23]Hackers also put up over 500,000 Zoom user names and passwords for sale on thedark web.[23]In response to the multitude of security and privacy issues found, Zoom began a comprehensive security plan, which included consulting with Luta Security, Trail of Bits, formerFacebookCSOAlex Stamos,formerGoogleglobal lead of privacy technology Lea Kissner, BishopFox, theNCC Group,andJohns Hopkins UniversitycryptographerMatthew D. Green.[140]
On April 20, 2020, theNew York Timesreported thatDropboxengineers had traced Zoom's security vulnerabilities back over two years, pushing Zoom to address such issues more quickly, and paying top hackers to find problems with Zoom's software. In the same article, theNew York Timesnoted that security researchers have praised Zoom for improving its response times, and for quickly patching recent bugs and removing features that could have privacy risks.[23][25]In a blog post on April 1, 2020, CEO Yuan announced a 90-day freeze on releasing new features, to focus on fi xing privacy and security issues within the platform.[141]On July 1, 2020, at the end of the freeze, the company stated it had released 100 new safety features over the 90-day period. Those efforts include end-to-end encryption for all users, turning on meeting passwords by default, giving users the ability to choose which data centers calls are routed from, consulting with security experts, forming a CISO council, an improved bug bounty program, and working with third parties to help test security. Yuan also stated that Zoom would be sharing a transparency report later in 2020.[142][143]
On November 16, 2020, Zoom announced a new security feature to combat disruptions during a session. The new feature was said to be a default for all free and paid users and made available on the Zoom clients forMac,Windows,andLinux,as well as Zoom mobile apps.[144]
On August 12, 2022,Wired magazinereported on three separate security vulnerabilities discovered by security researcher Patrick Wardle affecting the ZoomMac OSdesktop app. The vulnerabilities allowed an attacker who already had access to the Mac device to perform aprivilege escalationattack by installing malicious code using the app's auto-update feature, thereby giving them full control over the victim's device.[145]
Zoombombing
edit"Zoombombing"is a phenomenon where uninvited participants join a meeting to cause disruption.[146][147][148]In July 2019, security researcher Sam Jadali uncovered theDataSpiileak.[149][150]This catastrophic leak was facilitated by a marketing intelligence company known as Nacho Analytics (NA), which provided its members access to the URLs of real-time Zoom meetings of firms such as Oracle, Dell, Walmart, Uber, UCLA and Capital One.[151][152]NA's dissemination of meeting URLs enabled its members to Zoombomb these meetings. In April 2020, Zoom increased its default security settings to mitigate Zoombombing.[22]The company also created a new "report a user to Zoom" button, intended to catch those behind Zoombombing attacks.[153]
Encryption practices
editZoom encrypts its public data streams, usingTLS 1.2with AES-256 (Advanced Encryption Standard) to protectsignaling,and AES-128 to protectstreaming media.[154]Security researchers and reporters have criticized the company for its lack of transparency and poor encryption practices. Zoom initially claimed to use "end-to-end encryption"in its marketing materials,[155]but later clarified it meant "from Zoom end point to Zoom end point" (meaning effectively between Zoom servers and Zoom clients), whichThe Interceptdescribed as misleading and "dishonest".[156]Alex Stamos,a Zoom advisor who was formerly security chief atFacebook,noted that a lack of end-to-end encryption is common in such products, as it is also true ofGoogle Hangouts,Microsoft Teams,andCisco Webex.[157]On May 7, 2020, Zoom announced that it had acquiredKeybase,a company specializing in end-to-end encryption, as part of an effort to strengthen its security practices moving forward.[158][159]Later that month, Zoom published a document for peer review, detailing its plans to ultimately bring end-to-end encryption to the software.[160]
In April 2020, Citizen Lab researchers discovered that a single, server-generated AES-128 key is being shared between all participants inECB mode,which is deprecated due to its pattern-preserving characteristics of the ciphertext.[161]During test calls between participants in Canada and United States, the key was provisioned from servers located in mainland China where they are subject to theChina Internet Security Law.[98]On June 3, 2020, Zoom announced that users on their free tier will not have access toend-to-end encryptionso that they could cooperate with theFBIand law enforcement.[162]Later, they said that they do not "proactively monitor meeting content".[163]On June 17, 2020, the company reversed course and announced that free users would have access to end-to-end encryption after all.[164]
On September 7, 2020, cryptography researcherNadim Kobeissiaccused Zoom's security team of failing to credit his open-source protocol analysis research software, Verifpal, with being instrumental during the design phase of Zoom's new encryption protocol, as described in their whitepaper published in June 2020.[165]Kobeissi published a week's worth of conversations with Zoom's security leadership in support of his claim, including Max Krohn, which included eight Verifpal models that Zoom's team asked for feedback on, promises of a citation to credit Kobeissi for his contributions and an admission that the Verifpal citation was pulled from the whitepaper at the last moment for unspecified reasons. Kobeissi also linked to a tweet by Zoom security consultant Lea Kissner which he described as a publiccharacter assassinationattempt issued in response to his repeated requests to have his work cited in the research paper published by Zoom.[166]
Data routing
editZoom admitted that some calls in early April 2020 and prior were mistakenly routed through servers inmainland China,prompting some governments and businesses to cease their usage of Zoom.[167]The company later announced that data of free users outside of China would "never be routed through China" and that paid subscribers will be able to customize which data center regions they want to use. The company has data centers in Europe, Asia, North America, and Latin America.[168][169]
Regulatory issues
editIn August 2021, the Data Protection regulatory body in Hamburg, Germany, ruled that Zoom was operating in theEuropean Unionin breach of theGeneral Data Protection Regulation(GDPR). This is due to the fact that, as per theSchrems IIruling, data that is being transferred out of the EU must be given the same protections that provided by the GDPR. The data gathered by Zoom was being sent to the United States.[170]
