[technology taskforce] ZOOM 90-Day Security Plan Progress Report: April 15

[DANIEL NANGHAKA]

Are we still safe with zoom amidst all the flaws that have been identified?

There was a time when a simple flaw was discover during an ICANN meeting,
and Adobe Connect was shutdown. Is there an analysis of the effects.
What is the security guarantee that we have on zoom?
