Zoom provides a secure, HIPAA-compliant video communication platform for healthcare professionals. Through its HIPAA-enabled services, Zoom helps protect sensitive patient information in line with the HIPAA Security Rule, Privacy Rule, and Breach Notification Rule.
Key safeguards include:
256-bit AES-GCM encryption for all data in motion
Access controls like unique user IDs, waiting rooms, and meeting passcodes
Audit logging, session timeouts, and host-controlled screen sharing
Verified user authentication via email and password
Third-party HIPAA attestation confirming Zoom’s compliance with administrative, technical, and physical safeguards
Zoom enables healthcare providers to host secure video consultations, share encrypted health records, and communicate with patients while maintaining the privacy and integrity of Protected Health Information (PHI).
Note: While Zoom cannot be officially HIPAA “certified” (as HIPAA does not certify software), it has undergone a third-party HIPAA attestation aligned with SSAE 18 standards.
