Onboarding and offboarding

Getting started
With any deployment training will be scoped and factored into the solution – training can include instructor-led sessions or self-paced e-learning through Zoom’s Learning Centre, a few educational platform where users can access courses that expand their knowledge on Zoom products. Users can enrol in short, interactive, on-demand courses, or quick help in learning a specific skill or feature using a collection of “Show Me” product videos. It’s continually enhanced and updated with the launch of new features and products.
Once customers are live on their Zoom solutions they are provided with proactive digital deliverables and recommended learning paths to help drive adoption and maximise their investment in Zoom. This approach enables faster response times with group knowledge for better and more efficient support.
Self Service Offerings include: Zoom Learning Center (Learn anytime, anywhere and expand your product knowledge), Zoom Community (get involved, become a leader, and connect with other Zoom users and customers), Zoom Support (find answers to your product questions in our many articles and training materials, or contact the support team for technical assistance), and Webinars (attend onboarding webinars to learn about best practices and get the latest information about the Zoom platform).

End-of-contract data extraction
Upon contract termination, Zoom deactivates all user IDs related to the customer account and any saved data is deleted. Therefore, the customer will have to download any recorded meetings prior to their termination date by visiting their online user profile, navigating to their recordings and downloading selected recordings to an alternate source.

Zoom has a data retention standard that details how data is deleted when a customer terminates service (i.e., purged on day 31). Furthermore, our Data Protection Standard states how Zoom must sanitise media. Zoom has a process for records retention to ensure that Personal Information is retained for no longer than necessary to fulfil the obligations or meet legal retention requirements.

Depending on your app’s use case, you can choose from our various APIs and implement the features accordingly. All APIs under the Zoom API are based on REST architecture and are accessed via HTTPS at specified URLs. The base URL for all requests is https://api.zoom.us/v2/. The complete URL varies depending on the endpoint of the resource being accessed. For instance, you can list all users on an account via a GET request to this URL: https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/. Within our API reference pages, you can send test requests and view responses. You can also view the code for the request in various languages such as Python, Node, Java and more. With each release, we add additional APIs and enhancements to meet the needs of our customers.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Configuration and change management approach
Change triggers for unique processes and controls are: Code, Database, Infrastructure, Data.

Weekly meetings held to request changes that need to be performed during maintenance windows. Change requests are presented, validated, and scheduled. Changes are approved by the Change Manager. Implementation in production should not be by the same individual who developed the change. When staffing levels do not permit this separation, management oversight and approval of the change and testing process ensure appropriate processes are followed. Dev and test environments are physically and logically segregated from production. No customer data is used in testing.
Vulnerability management type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Vulnerability management approach
Zoom has a formal Vulnerability Management Plan in place. Zoom performs monthly vulnerability and web application scanning using an external party (Qualys). Scan reports are reviewed by our Security and technical teams and discussed with the engineering and development teams. Validated findings are tracked in our JIRA system throughout remediation.

Zoom has a monthly patch cadence. Zoom will patch all applications, workstations, and servers (virtual or physical) with all current operating system, database, and application patches deployed in our computing environment according to a schedule predicated on the criticality of the patch. Maintenance/patching typically will have no service downtime.
Protective monitoring type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
We have monthly vulnerability and web application scans. Findings are reviewed and validated by our technical and engineering team. Vulnerability rated on severity level and tracked using our JIRA system. Vulnerability fixes are release from our engineering team and follow our formal change management process for deployment to production. Zoom also has DDoS monitoring and Managed service in place. Affected traffic are diverted and filtered through a scrubbing centre.

Zoom responds to incidents as defined within our SOC2 report available upon execution of a mutual NDA.
Incident management type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v4.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Incident management approach
Zoom communicates the incident response policy to internal and external users and instructs users to contact their supervisor and the information security representative if they become aware of a possible security breach. When a potential security incident is detected, a defined incident management process is initiated by authorised personnel. Incidents are tracked through the tracking application, which includes the corrective actions implemented in accordance with the defined policies and procedures.
