Hi Pete,

Rather than addressing each privacy and security issue individually, I published a statement: 
https://uit.stanford.edu/news/zoom-privacy-security-and-zoombombing

In email communications, I've been highlighting Zoom's responses and the measures they're taking to bolster their 
security program:

  *   Zoom's response to recent security researcher publication: 
https://blog.zoom.us/wordpress/2020/04/03/response-to-research-from-university-of-torontos-citizen-lab/
  *   Updated Zoom encryption whitepaper: https://zoom.us/docs/en-us/privacy-and-security.html
  *   Announcement of Zoom's new security advisory board, including Stanford's very own Alex Stamos:

Subject: [SECURITY] Zoom Communication


Hi Everyone,



I have a question for those institutions who are utilizing Zoom.  How are you handling security and privacy concerns 
brought by users in light of all the press?  I’m interested in how you are handling things overall and specifically if 
you have sent out any communications to reassure users?  If you have sent a communication, would you be willing to 
share it?



Thanks,





Andrew Pete
