The Zoom videoconferencing platform enjoyed an explosive surge in users after the COVID-19 pandemic forced schools and businesses to increase remote capabilities. Reports indicate that Zoom saw an uptick from 10 million meeting participants in December to upwards of 200 million by March. But the exponential rise in popularity appears to have shined an unwelcome spotlight on Zoom. Cybersecurity breaches and a trend called “Zoom-bombing” have emerged that raise concerns about vulnerabilities. “This outbreak and subsequent quarantine have created a workforce of remote workers the world has never seen, and with it, the unrelenting cyberattacks on that remote workforce are at times beyond comprehension. This has shown how naive our workforce has become with technology and the role they play in cybersecurity,” Jack Smith of Initial.IT reportedly said.
