I work for a large bank. We initially said we were looking at Zoom. Then the security issues came out and we announced that no meetings could be held over Zoom where client information was discussed. Now just today our CTO said that we are about to come out with an announcement on increasing our usage of Zoom. It sounded like we might be heading towards making it our primary provider for video (we currently use WebEx). Hopefully others who had concerns about ZM security will do the same.

Thanks WilliamDuer, you posting that link impelled me to add to my Zoom in the pre-market today, and Zoom is already up about $8 my that purchase price. That’s what our board is about, helping each other to be aware of what’s going, and to understand our companies’ progress. I appreciate your help.
