In April 2020 whilst already under a lot of scrutiny for their security issues, Zoom was targeted by a hack and around 500,000 user accounts appeared for sale on a dark web forum. The Zoom accounts were collected by credential stuffing, using username and password combinations that were obtained in past breaches of other companies. Cybersecurity company Cyble found at least 530,000 accounts on the dark web hacker forums and verified that they were legitimate. Each account contained:
This gives the hacker access to not only the account but the contents of any meetings it might have either hosted or been a part of. Therefore, in terms of private or confidential being leaked the total number of affected parties is probably significantly higher than the number of accounts for sale. When going through the list of available accounts Cyble found that a number of them belonged to universities around the world.
If you are one of the users whose information was sold on the dark web you may be entitled to make a Zoom data breach claim. We can put you in touch with expert data breach solicitors who can investigate the breach and guide you through the process of making a claim should you have a case that is worth pursuing. Compensation can be payable for any distress caused by the Zoom privacy breach which could have left you open to the risk of fraudulent activity.

Data breach experts
We use dedicated data breach solicitors who have handled thousands of data breach claims
Even before this Zoom data leak, they were facing a lot of problems with their security measures not being up to an adequate standard in protecting their users’ data. Users have the right to expect that any personal or financial data that they have shared with an online organisation, such as Zoom, is securely stored, and handled.
Bringing a data breach claim not only gets you access to compensation, but also holds a company or organisation to account for their actions. As a result, this will usually prompt them to take the necessary steps to boost their data security measures to ensure that such a breach cannot occur again.
If you think you may have a valid Zoom data breach claim then get in touch with us and we will put you in touch with data breach experts who will make enquiries regarding your claim and confirm whether or not you have a case to claim compensation.
