A new Linux and Mac BASH shell security bug called ‘Shellshock‘ also known as ‘Bashdoor’ has just recently appeared on the Internet. In accordance with guidelines issued by the US Computer Emergency Readiness Team, VPN Zoom has updated all vital components of our service to keep our valued users 100% safe and secure. All of our servers that utilize the BASH shell have been updated with the latest version which patches the Shellshock exploit.

Shellshock affects Linux and Mac operating systems. It allows hackers to steal your personal information such as banking information and passwords and take control of your Internet connected computer or mobile device. VPN Zoom supports both operating systems, preventing our users from getting hacked while using public networks and helping to keep your online information secure.
