Zoom\u00a0and\u00a0E-Learning Hacking Incident<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

All teachers will stop using video conferencing platform Zoom for their home-based teaching, after hackers hijacked the streaming of a lesson to show obscene pictures to some students\u00a0in\u00a0Singapore.<\/p>\n

The move is a precautionary measure until security issues have been ironed out, the Ministry of Education said last night.<\/p>\n

It is investigating the Wednesday incident involving students of a school in the east of Singapore, and will make a police report if necessary, said its divisional director for the educational technology division. He also said home-based learning will continue but teachers will use alternative means to conduct their lessons.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, “we have reiterated and spelt out to all our teachers the security measures they must adhere to when using such video conferencing platforms. This includes requiring secure log-ins and not sharing the meeting link beyond the students in the class”, he said.<\/p>\n

The hacking happened during a geography lesson for a Secondary 1 class. Hackers hijacked the streaming and showed the students\u00a0obscene pictures.<\/p>\n

The platform has been enjoying success owing to disruptions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

Upsetting:<\/h4>\n

We have been deeply upset by increasing reports of harassment on this platform and strongly condemn such behavior.<\/p>\n

With most people working from home and students doing home-based learning, Zoom has been the video conferencing tool of choice for many workplaces and schools, given that it is free and easy to use.<\/p>\n

Even the Government uses it to hold some media conferences.<\/p>\n

For remote communication and collaboration, government agencies use secure channels Such as Clarity\u2019s 3CX\u00a0Video Conferencing Tool\u00a0to conduct meetings and discussions internal to the public sector. To facilitate communication with external parties on non-sensitive matters, government agencies use\u00a0our\u00a0variety of tools, including\u00a0Video Conferencing\u00a0for the convenience of these parties.<\/p>\n

Heads up! 3CX Web-Meeting is also currently available on Cloud will soon also be available as an on-premise solution installed on your own network or cloud. Does your organization have strict privacy guidelines enforcing you to keep your data within your own control for compliance reasons? Then this solution may be just what you were looking for.<\/p>\n

The new Web-Meeting variant will provide the MCU server, together with other microservices as managed installs, for you to handle your own video conferencing data and flows.<\/p>\n

Your Own Web-Meeting Locally or on the Cloud:<\/h4>\n

The on-premise version of Web-Meeting will support an impressive number of platforms out-of-the-box, including:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Windows 2016 and up<\/li>\n
  2. Debian 9 and 10<\/li>\n
  3. Raspbian Buster for the Raspberry Pi 3B+ and 4B devices.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It will be available for installation on a single machine or split between multiple different machines, deployed on the cloud or in your local network as needed. You will be able to install it on a variety of operating systems with full compatibility between the included micro-services. For example, the MCU service can be configured to run on a local Windows host, while the storage and converter services run on a cloud Debian Linux host.<\/p>\n
