Zoom Update to Version 5.0
Zoom clients must be updated to 5.0 before May 30.
On May 30th, 2020, Zoom will enable GCM encryption across the entire Zoom platform, providing increased protection for meeting data. After May 30, 2020, all Zoom clients on older versions will receive a forced upgrade when trying to join meetings as GCM Encryption will be fully enabled across the Zoom platform. Please begin updating all your clients to Zoom 5.0 now.
To check your version of Zoom:

To update Zoom:
WPI IT-managed computers connected to the WPI network (or VPN) will automatically receive the new version in Software Center, and will be prompted to update.
