In recent times, we have heard a lot about the Zoom video calling platform, since it is very briefly the ‘standard’ for all meetings and classes on Earth. However, it is also a platform that was noticed by several security problems. Namely, due to all the failures that not only cost several users their passwords. As they also contributed to the easy invasion of private calls with the aim of creating disorder.
That said, with the major security update that the platform has had recently, it seems that these problems have all stayed in the past. However… There is a big drawback! You just have to pay and be an active user on the platform to receive the next security update! But is it really worth it?
More secure Zoom calls? Yes … But only for those who pay!
Therefore, according to what was revealed by Alex Stamos himself (head of platform security). The new update should be released soon! Furthermore, the fact that it is only launched for paying users has a reason.
This is because, according to Alex, the encryption of video calls has been used for illegal purposes. And there is nothing better than charging money for these types of resources to end these types of actions once and for all. In addition, it was also announced that the new update will not cover mobile devices. And that only PC users will be able to enjoy these supposedly safer video calls.
In short, it seems that Zoom has a great responsibility on their shoulders due to the fact that several schools and companies are currently using the platform for their day-to-day work. And as such, the safety of all users must be preserved to the maximum so that security breaches do not haunt the platform again.
