Last month, we covered how Tripwire Configuration Manager can audit your cloud service provider accounts like AWS, Azure, GCP, and other cloud-based services such as Salesforce. In this blog, we will continue our dive into cloud services and show how Tripwire Configuration Manager can monitor your Zoom environments.

Zoom is a popular video telecommunications platform that has seen tremendous growth in the past few years. Using best practice security controls is important within Zoom as many organizations utilize the platform for sharing confidential corporate or personal health information.

In this blog, we will go over the basics of scanning a Zoom account with Tripwire Configuration Manager. As before, most of the steps shown will be similar across the different support cloud account types and will be familiar to users of Configuration Manager. While the specific configuration details may vary, the general workflow will be the same regardless of whether you are scanning Amazon Web Services, Zoom, or any other supported cloud service.
