I love what you shared.
‘ Yuan said Zoom was initially created for video conferencing at large organizations like banks, universities, government agencies and healthcare companies, all places that would have a dedicated IT staff tasked with safeguarding against hackers.
"We did not design the product with the foresight that, in a matter of weeks, every person in the world would suddenly be working, studying, and socializing from home," Yuan said.’
That is the saddest sack of an excuse for a royal screw up I've ever heard a technology CEO say
Yeah, maybe 9 YEARS AGO, that's how you started out. What the hell were you doing or thinking for the last 8?
Where's the forward thinking?
Didn't you realize technology evolves including security?
And what does 'every person in the world' have anything to do with all your security flaws. The flaws are there whether 10 people are using it or 10 million.
How could companies take on the application security themselves? Doesn't Zoom realize that many companies use conferencing technology to talk to other companies? To talk to customers?
This 9 year thing is a perfect example of what Rory said a number of times
Technology companies are 'locked into' older technology stack and code that were written 10-20 years ago and haven't changed
But wait, there is more...
It's just not one security issue mind you
Vulnerability that could allow remote attackers to steal victims' Windows login credentials and even execute arbitrary commands on their systems.
Think about that one. Your ID & PW that you log onto your computer with!
Some people find a way to sneak their way into unsuspecting meetings and online gatherings and bombarded them with pornographic images or racist comments.
Can you image. Grade schools were using Zoom. Many are dumping Zoom now.
Doesn't use end-to-end encryption to protect calling data of its users from prying eyes despite telling users that "Zoom is using an end to end encrypted connection.
It's bad that they don't use end-to-end as you can imagine some conversations likely have very confidential information shared, but to say you do? There's a real case for a lawsuit.
Was caught sharing users' device information with Facebook, raising legitimate concerns over users' privacy.
That's a big problem and there goes all trust if there was any left after the other security issues
Let uninvited people join private meetings and remotely eavesdrop on private audio, video, and documents shared throughout the session.

Chad's video really addressed all these glaring holes in Zoom by speaking to how well VERB is architected
For any direct sales company that was using Zoom, just the liability alone could make all of them consider other options quickly
I was laughing when I read this article
Pretty clever
