Zoom is an online video conferencing and collaboration tool. Zoom holds critical data of your organization, and this makes it a target for malicious actors.

Connecting Zoom to Defender for Cloud Apps gives you improved insights into your users' activities and provides threat detection using machine learning based anomaly detections.

Use this app connector to access SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) features, via security controls reflected in Microsoft Secure Score. Learn more.

SaaS security posture management

To see security posture recommendations for Zoom in Microsoft Secure Score, create an API connector via the Connectors tab, with “account:read:admin, chat_channel:read:admin and user:read:admin” permissions. In Secure Score, select Recommended actions and filter by Product = Zoom.

For example, recommendations for Zoom include:

  • Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA)
  • Enable session timeout for web users
  • Enforce end to end encryption in all Zoom meetings

If a connector already exists and you don't see Zoom recommendations yet, refresh the connection by disconnecting the API connector, and then reconnecting it with the “account:read:admin, chat_channel:read:admin and user:read:admin” permissions.
