# Zoom

## What is Zoom?

Zoom is a remote conferencing service that provides video conferencing, online meetings, chat, and mobile collaboration.

## Why Should You Use the Zoom Connector?

The Zoom connector provides visibility into the users assets in your environment. You can use this visibility to:

- ensure assets are managed per your security policies
- derive relationships between assets, users, applications, and data

## How Does This Connector Work?

Lucidum executes read-only requests to the Zoom REST API and ingests only meta-data about Zoom devices. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
