Zoom cancels all work on new features after latest security alerts

Zoom has cancelled all work on new features and will instead focus on its security and privacy. The company's founder and chief executive Eric Yuan apologised to users after a run of problems with the app and outlined a plan to improve it over the next 90 days. He admitted that the app has struggled with the vast number of new users that have come to it in recent weeks. As well as a rapid increase in the use of the platform, the extra scrutiny has brought attention to a host of security and privacy bugs within the app. Mr Yuan confirmed that for the next 90 days, all new feature development was being frozen to instead focus engineering resources on security issues.
