On that date, any pre-5.0 Zoom client will not work any more. The company reports that there are a number of key additions, most notably AES 256-bit encryption and a scheduled server update on their end to force GCM encryption for every Zoom meeting on May 30, 2020. But everything else in its development pipeline has been frozen as Zoom’s tech team deals with security so there have been a remarkable number of changes in that same very short amount of time.Īnd as of the end of April, the company released the much heralded 5.0 version of Zoom that has significant updates addressing security for Mac, Windows and mobile users. A service that was successful is suddenly da bomb and it’s no surprise that it’s having to reassess its approach to encryption, privacy and security. In fact, the company’s active daily users number jumped from 10 million to 200 million in three months according to VentureBeat. There’s no question that the Zoom video chat service has seen explosive growth in the months since the world has been on stay at home orders due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
