Addressing Recent Zoom News
by Kimberly Carlson April 8, 2020

April 8, 2020

ICANN Blog Author: Ashwin Rangan, SVP Engineering & Chief Information Office 08 Apr 2020 Link: https://www.icann.org/news/blog/addressing-recent-zoom-news Recently, ICANN’s video conferencing platform, Zoom, has been in the news quite a bit. With shelter-in-place and work-from-home becoming more familiar, not only for the ICANN community but the world at large, Zoom has become a vital tool for many businesses. With this recent increase in Zoom usage, we’ve also seen a number of bugs, flaws, and security vulnerabilities come to light. It’s natural that a hugely popular system like Zoom will be poked and prodded, and it’s likely that alarming bits of information will continue to be revealed in the coming weeks and months. However, it’s important to remember that almost any piece of software has bugs and glitches. What’s vitally important in these moments is how the software vendor reacts to receiving such information. In this regard, ICANN applauds Zoom for their efforts. Every time a new vulnerability has been exposed, Zoom has reacted swiftly by releasing patches within a day or two, while remaining transparent about the nature of the underlying issues. If you care to learn more about any specific vulnerability or how Zoom has responded, we highly recommend taking a look at Zoom’s blog, which is available here<https://blog.zoom.us/wordpress/>. As stated before, it’s likely that this won’t be the last time we will hear about Zoom’s flaws, either from security researchers or new attack vectors. While we continue to monitor developments, ICANN remains committed to Zoom. We strive to offer the best solutions to our community, and at this time, we are still confident that Zoom fits the bill. If you have any questions or comments regarding Zoom and how it may relate to you, please do not hesitate to reach out to mts(a)icann.org<mailto:mts@icann.org> or leave a comment below.

Dear All, This is a reminder about the special Council meeting, scheduled for today. (Tue, 7 April 2020 noon UTC). Consult the details on how to participate here<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=126430939>. Due to the quickly developing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is highly probably that ICANN68 – scheduled to be held in June 2020 in Kuala Lumpur – will be held via remote-participation only. To adequately prepare for a potential Virtual ICANN68 Policy Forum, the ccNSO Council and the ccNSO Working Group and Committee Chairs will meet, to discuss the impact and way forward for the ccNSO schedule. Topics on the agenda will include, among others: * Lessons learned from the virtual ICANN67 Community Forum * Which meetings need to be held as part of the ICANN68 schedule? Based on which criteria? * Which meetings should be held, but not necessarily as part of ICANN68? For instance, are there any sessions that should be held as webinars instead? * Which meetings can or should be deferred until the next time we meet in person? * How – if any – should the ccNSO contribution to ICANN68 plenary sessions look like? The meeting will be held via Zoom, on Tuesday, 7 April 2020, (noon) 12.00 UTC. You are welcome to join.

NEW: Delay in the Completion of the Third Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3) Final Report From: Cheryl Langdon-Orr and Pat Kane, ATRT3 Co-Chairs Dear Community Leaders, As you know, the rearrangement of the schedule for ICANN67 resulted in the cancellation of the Third Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3)'s two days of face-to-face meetings.

We are therefore advising you that we will now expect to be complete our work by the end of May 2020.
