New Delhi: The Karnataka State Open University (KSOU), Mysore has developed its own video-conferencing platform ‘KSOU Connect’ amid privacy concerns with Zoom, a California based Video Communication company.
In its circular dated April 18, the Centre has also asked the universities and other institutions to stop using Zoom for video conferencing or online classes as it has been suspected with privacy and security threats.
