Zoom AI Companion β shadow AI risk profile
Zoom Β· meetings Β· base risk score 2.4 / 5
Native Zoom AI is administered through the Zoom tenant, making it considerably easier to govern than a third-party bot. Zoom contractually excludes training on customer content as of late-2023 after public pressure. Default-on configurations have triggered organisational pushback; verify the tenant default for your account.
