The video conferencing platform Zoom has taken off during the recent COVID-19 pandemic. It is an excellent tool for staying connected with loved ones, taking meetings, hosting webinars. It's success has not gone unnoticed. While we are highly supportive of the platform, however, we want you to be aware of recent security issues and how to protect yourself from them. The security breaches involved individuals hacking into and taking over group meetings, speaking over the attendees and showing graphic images. Bumping up your security settings is not guaranteed to prevent chat hacks, but it they will most certainly help. Here are some tips to keep yourself safer while using Zoom: - Require a meeting password - Create a waiting room - Make sure that only the host can share their screen - Create an invite-only meeting - Lock a meeting once it starts Need a little help? We can do that! To speak to us about all your computer security needs, come see us in-store at 1257 Marine Drive in North Vancouver or give us a call at 604-986-7680.
