Zoom, the videoconferencing giant that’s been both hero and villain of the coronavirus age, sends user data to China, according to researchers.
. The Citizen Lab researchers dug further and found a handful of companies owned by Zoom operating under the name Ruanshi Software.
Not that Zoom is unaware of concerns about its links to China. As per a recent SEC filing: “We have a high concentration of research and development personnel in China, which could expose us to market scrutiny regarding the integrity of our solution or data security features.” Huawei, the Chinese telecoms giant, faced such scrutiny in the U.S., to the point it’s been barred from working with any American government organization and has seen its smartphone sales dwindle in the country.
With end-to-end encryption, the digital keys that lock up and open user data are only supposed to be generated and stored on the user’s computer or smartphone. In Zoom’s system, its own servers generate the keys and so it has access to them, meaning the audio and video of each call aren’t truly protected.
Crucially, though, only those with a Zoom meeting password receive the key and guessing AES-128 keys is still incredibly hard. Given the keys change with each new conversation, cracking them in time should be infeasible in almost all scenarios.
