Security News > 2020 > April > 35% of Zoom users fear data leaks amid the platform's security issues

12% of users have reportedly stopped using Zoom altogether, the social platform Blind found.
Zoom has been slammed for a wide array of security issues over the past couple of weeks, including Zoom bombings, personal data leaks, absence of end-to-end encryption, and more.
"There were a lot of Zoom meetings and passwords on the web that were compromised, which means anyone can come into your Zoom meeting and just into what you're talking about." Kim said.
The data surveyed more than 4,000 respondents to determine if Zoom's security issues had impacted their usage of the platform, and if they were worried about compromised information.
While Zoom's security problems are definitely hurting the company, it doesn't necessarily mean the platform is doomed, according to Kim.
