LG Electronics has launched a new Micro LED signage solution called LG MAGNIT in order to deliver ground-breaking picture quality and durability with LG’s proprietary Black Coating display technology. The company claims that LG MAGNIT has streamlined installation with its clever block-assembly design. This new signage solution will be launched in key markets of the Americas, Europe, Asia and the Middle East this week.
Asserting that it’s always exciting to present true innovation in LED signage and we are particularly thrilled to introduce our LG MAGNIT lineup at this time, Paik Ki-mun, senior vice president and head of the Information Display business unit of LG Electronics Business Solutions Company, said, “With its combination of superior picture quality, expandability and convenient setup, LG MAGNIT is a great Micro LED signage solution for a wide variety of commercial and public spaces, including convention centers, corporate and hotel lobbies, luxury boutiques, broadcast studios, control rooms, exhibition halls and museums.”
In what is being regarded as an evolutionary step forward in display technology, Micro LED features self-emissive pixels of just one micrometer-scale in size applied directly to the substrate board. This helps in delivering sharper images with improved contrast and a wider viewing angle.
Moreover, LG’s new Black Coating technology applied to the front of the displays is designed to improve contrast and colour accuracy while helping to protect the tiny LED pixels from moisture, dust and external impact. With Anti-glare and anti-fingerprint, LG Black Coating also minimizes distracting reflections and makes it easier to remove unsightly smudges.
LG MAGNIT is a large-scale display for the home with 163 inches of 4K resolution for enjoying favorite movies, series and sports. Featuring LG’s webOS smart signage platform for intuitive navigation and control of the many useful functions, the tech major claims that LG MAGNIT’s superb picture quality is boosted by an AI-powered α (Alpha) image processor found in state-of-the-art LG TVs that intelligently analyzes content and source and automatically optimizes visual output in real-time.
Offering the benefit of hassle-free installation and configuration, LG MAGNIT’s each Micro LED cabinet measures only 600W x 337.5H x 44.9D mm and links seamlessly to other cabinets, allowing technicians to quickly and painlessly erect large-scale display on site. The ability to smoothly send and receive signals wirelessly is due to LG’s non-contact connector technology. Additionally, LG MAGNIT cuts the time needed for cable management, with only a few wires on the back of the displays to link the cabinets to system controllers and power mains.
In order to make history as one of the first OEMs to bring the latest Android 11 update to global users, the world-leading smartphone brand OPPO held the global launch for its all-new ColorOS 11 via an online press conference.
With its “Make Life Flow” concept, ColorOS 11 is also providing the rich UI customization sought by OPPO users. Its rapid launch, which follows on the heels of Google’s Android 11 announcement, is the result of a close collaboration between the two companies to realize the launch in record time.
ColorOS 11 offers an unprecedented level of UI customization to help users unleash their imagination and personalize their experience. Users can essentially create their own Always-On Display, theme, and wallpaper, as well as fonts, icons, and ringtones.
This latest upgrade also enhances stock Android’s Dark Mode with three color schemes and levels of contrast. Meanwhile, OPPO Relax 2.0 lets users create their own white noise mix while also offering an extensive and immersive collection of sounds from cities around the world.
“ColorOS 11’s focus on UI customization is rooted in the customer’s desire for a more personalized and unique phone experience. The ColorOS team has heeded the user feedback for greater UI customization, offering a more personalized UI that encompasses a wide range of features. In doing so, we are providing users with ample space to demonstrate their creativity and exercise control over their phones,” said Lynn Ni, OPPO ColorOS Design Project Lead.
It offers greater efficiency than ever before as ColorOS 11 is equipped with robust features that improve work and life efficiency. Among them is the Three-Finger Translate powered by Google Lens, the first feature co-created by OPPO and Google. It captures and translates text through a simple screenshot taken with a three-finger gesture.
Another new feature of Flexdrop provides a simple and intuitive solution for multi-tasking. Users can watch video and text at the same time, which is particularly useful for gamers and video-lovers. Users can even switch between and control different smart home devices through a new Device Control menu, without having to download new apps.
Meanwhile, Battery Guard prevents damage from prolonged charging at unstable power voltages by learning user habits. It intelligently pauses charging once it reaches 80 percent at night, before resuming to achieve a full charge by the time users wake up.
As phones often experience lags and stutters as a result, ColorOS 11 has introduced UI First 2.0, which combines OPPO’s proprietary lag-reducing engine with Quantum Animation. This boosts RAM utilization by 45 percent, improving the response rate by 32 percent and the frame rate by 17percent.
Additinally, ColorOS 11 adds Android 11’s newly-added privacy options while creating a series of additional privacy protection and data security features. Private System creates a separate system where the second version of apps and data runs independent of the original and is accessible only via a separate fingerprint scan or password. Also, there is a new shortcut to App Lock enables users to lock apps through a password, fingerprint, or facial verification. The permissions system has also been enhanced, with temporary permissions that reset the camera, microphone, and location access when the app is closed. Meanwhile, auto-reset permissions return app permission settings to default if they haven’t been used for a long time. To prevent malicious apps from accessing other apps’ data, scoped storage restricts apps’ access to phone data, requesting user permission in order to do so.
As far as to ensure peace of mind for heavy users, ColorOS 11’s Low Battery Message feature provides options to send messages when phone battery drops to 15 percent, displaying users’ current location to selected contacts. This allows users to share their status with families and friends when their phone is about to run out of battery. This special safety feature has been designed post inputs from users in India and is currently is available only in the Indian market.
Asserting that this would be the fastest and widest rollout in ColorOS history, Oppo claims that the current beta launch of ColorOS 11 invites tech-savvy users to explore the new features and offer feedback, with an official version to follow in the coming weeks. It was also added that the ColorOS 11 will be released in a batch-by-batch approach, starting with the Find X2 Series and Reno3 Series. The complete rollout will cover 28-plus phone models, including the Find, Reno, F, K, and A series.
Android 11 is here and it is ready to be released to eligible devices. Google’s latest operating system was released last week to Google Pixel 2 and later models globally after officially making a global debut a few months ago. However, the company is yet to release it to newer Pixel devices for the Indian market due to compatibility issues.
In spite of this, many of the Pixel users in the country have complained about the unavailability of the latest software update while most of the users took this issue to its community forum also. However, the company has not revealed the exact reason behind the inaccessibility of the Google Pixel users but it said Before it releases the Android 11 update for the Indian market the company needs to work on it as per the Indian ecosystem requirements here which is most probably to be rolled out this week only.
According to a report in Android Central, the company has restricted the accessibility of the latest OS update might be due to the eSIM functionality of Google Pixel devices as Airtel and Jio both offer eSIM support for Pixel phones but Vi has just launch the eSIM connectivity in India which is only limited to Apple iPhones.
Anyways one the Android 11 is released to the Pixel phones in the India market all you need to do is go to System > Advanced > System update > Check for update. If it has reached your phone then it will show up there otherwise wait until it arrives at your device as the update is said to reach later by this week.
In addition to this Nokia, Xiaomi, as well as Oppo, has also confirmed the release of Android 11. According to Oppo the ColorOS 11 update on Sept. 14 will be rolled out to the beta users of Find X2, Find X2 Pro, Reno3 (4G) and Reno3 Pro (4G). While Xiaomi’s Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro will be first on the list to get Android 11 update.
ByteDance, the parent company that manages TikTok’s US operation, has reportedly selected Oracle to be the tech partner to oversee TikTok’s operations in the United States. However, it’s confirmed that Microsoft’s bid to acquire this deal has been rejected. This move by ByteDance to look for a tech partner has come after President Donald Trump threatened to impose a ban on this highly-popular app until and unless its American operations are sold.
Earlier, the Donald Trump administration has slated September 20 as the deadline for TikTok to announce a plan for the sale of its US operations or else stated that the app would be banned in the country by the end of this month.
Mind you! There is no clarity whether Oracle would acquire a majority ownership stake of this TikTok app as no official statement is issued as of now.
Experts, who have been keeping an eye on this bid to acquire the TikTok deal, are of the view that the US tech giant Microsoft has the perfect amount of capital to pump into this acquisition of the US operations of TikTok from ByteDance.
According to an official statement issued by Microsoft, “ByteDance let us know today they would not be selling TikTok’s US operations to Microsoft. We are confident our proposal would have been good for TikTok’s users, while protecting national security interests.”
However, Microsoft showcased its confidence that it would have made significant changes to ensure the service met the highest standards for security, privacy, online safety, and combatting disinformation, and we made these principles clear in our August statement. It further asserted that Microsoft would look forward to seeing how the service evolves in these important areas.
While participating in the race to acquire this bid, Microsoft had stated that would ensure that all private data of TikTok’s American users are transferred to and remains in the United States. To the extent that any such data is currently stored or backed-up outside the United States, Microsoft would ensure that this data is deleted from servers outside the country after it is transferred.
Microsoft appreciates the US Government’s and President Trump’s personal involvement as it continues to develop strong security protections for the country.
“These discussions are preliminary and there can be no assurance that a transaction which involves Microsoft will proceed. We do not intend to provide further updates until there is a definitive outcome to our discussions,” it had added.

This is expected to be powered by Snapdragon 865 SoC for 5G support whereas the 4G variant will have Exynos 990 SoC paired with 6GB of RAM. There will be an in-display fingerprint scanner on the phone along with a triple camera setup on the back. It is expected to include dual 12-megapixel sensors and an 8-megapixel camera. While on the front is most likely to have a 32-megapixel selfie camera. It is speculated to pack a 4,500mAh battery along with a 15W fast charger. The device will be IP68 rated for waterproof and dustproof.
Ahead of the November 10 launch, Xbox head Phil Spencer reveals details as the gamers across the world are eagerly waiting to enter a new generation of console gaming with the Xbox Series X, hardware and software innovations that enable the amazing possibilities for the future of games.
As far as the tech specifications are concerned, Spencer notified that Xbox Series X is based on Velocity Architecture that unlocks new speed & performance capabilities through the ground-breaking combination of hardware, a custom 1TB SSD & CPU, and deep software integration, to make for richer and more dynamic living worlds unlike anything ever seen before. Gamers will experience more time playing and less time waiting as loading times will be greatly decreased thanks to the processing power of Xbox Series X.

The new system on a chip (SOC) has been built from the ground up for speed and performance, with 12 teraflops of processing power and with compatibility in mind for four generations of games.
The Xbox head claims that this next-generation of console delivers unparalleled graphical fidelity. The three air-flow channels evenly distribute the temperatures generated by the advanced internal components, keeping the console cool and quiet. The innovative parallel cooling architecture allows for stunning game experiences with incredible graphical fidelity and performance.
According to Spencer, “For the first time ever on the console, an innovative split motherboard keeps the Xbox Series X internals evenly temperature controlled, allowing for the console to output more power.”
Moreover, there is a heat sink that is a non-electronic, passive mechanical component that has a vital role in the reliability and performance of the Xbox Series X and is integrated directly into the chassis of the console. This unique component of the parallel cooling architecture helps lend to the distinctive design of the console. The vapour chamber in the Xbox Series X enables evenly spread temperatures with the core and memory. As part of the parallel cooling architecture, the whisper-quiet fan keeps the Xbox Series X internal components cool without disturbing your gameplay.
On the storage front, the Xbox Series X Storage Expansion Card provides additional game storage at peak speed and performance by replicating the console’s internal custom SSD experience. The 1TB card is inserted directly into the back of the console via the dedicated storage expansion port.
Talking about the gameplay, the revolutionary new Xbox Velocity Architecture will help users experience improvements in performance, including improved boot and load times, more stable frame rates, higher resolutions, and improved quality on Xbox Series X. Games built using the Xbox Series X development kit are designed to take advantage of the unique capabilities of Xbox Series X. They will showcase unparalleled load-times, visuals, responsiveness, and framerates up to 120FPS.
Furthermore, Xbox Series X carries a new Xbox Wireless Controller. The modernized design of the Xbox Wireless Controller features sculpted surfaces and a refined geometry for enhanced comfort during gameplay. It helps you stay on target with a textured grip and a hybrid D-pad; capture and share content seamlessly while you play; and quickly pair with, play on, and switch between supported consoles, PCs, and mobile devices.

There are very few brands that are good at offering Tablets at a great price point. Samsung is one of the biggest makers in the market at the moment, which is selling tablets at both premium and non-premium points. The new Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is giving a tough fight to the iPad by Apple. Right now, the device is equally cost-effective and one of the best non-premium tablets that the company is offering. It is the toned-down version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 that arrived last year falling in the premium category. The Tab S6 Lite is perfect for students to organize, multitask, and create content effortlessly. While all the schools are taking online classes for this academic year because of the global pandemic and if you were planning to buy a tab for your children so that they can take notes, create and share then read our full review of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite that will help you make your choice.

Design and Display
As we mentioned earlier, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is the watered-down variant of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6, that was launched last year so it looks very identical to its elder sibling. Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite features a 10.4-inch WUXGA TFT display with 1,200×2,000 pixels of resolution that is slightly smaller than Tab S6(Review). It has thick bezels, sleek looks and is lightweight. Users get a sleek all metal and glass body, and on the front, it has a selfie camera too. While on the back it has a single selfie camera at the top left corner. The company’s logo is embossed at the centre and the AKG branding is done at the bottom of the back. It has magnetic edges to hold the S Pen to the tablet. In this version, the stylus doesn’t support Bluetooth, which allowed it to control the Tab S6 from a distance.
On the right side, there is a power button that can also be used to wake up Bixby, a volume rocker button and a SIM card slot to hold a Nano-SIM and a microSD card. While on the top edge you get a 3.5mm headphone jack and on the lower part it has a USB Type-C port for charging. Unlike Tab S6, which has quad speakers tuned by AKG here, you get only dual speakers. As it does not sound better than its sibling but we were ok with it as it is a toned-down variant. For the review we received the metallic Angora Blue, however, the company offers it in more colours like Oxford Gray and Chiffon Pink.
Coming to the performance of the display, Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite offers good viewing angles, but it could have been better as the brightness was low and while using it outdoors the screen becomes reflective. If you wish to read something you need to adjust the angles to lessen the reflection. So, we barely used it outdoors. This must be because it has a TFT display and lacks a super AMOLED HDR10 screen, which comes on the higher-end Tab S6.
We used the Samsung tablet to stream videos, shopping and yes, it was fun playing Ludo King and Asphalt 9 on this on the weekends. While the pandemic is still on and most of you are working from home and the schools are also shut this one can be your companion. As you can also attach a keyboard to this tablet and start typing as it comes loaded with Microsoft apps.
Performance and Camera
The device is powered by an octa-core Exynos 9611 processor paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, which can be expanded using a microSD card up to 1TB. The company offers it in two variants Wi-Fi-only with NFC and Bluetooth while the other one is an LTE version with GPS.
Being the Lite variant, this device lacks a lot of functionalities when it comes to performance. However, it can easily handle lots of tasks and doesn’t heat up while multitasking. It is great at doodling, taking notes and more.
The USP of the mid-range slate is its S Pen stylus, included in the box. The Pen is both pressures and tilt-sensitive, which clasps on this tablet magnetically so that it doesn’t fall off. The stylus is comfortable to hold and is great at scribbling and writing notes. You get the onscreen commands when you hover the pen over the display. Most of the time we used it to write something as it supports handwriting-to-text translation, but this also depends on how messy your handwriting is, as sometimes it cannot recognise what is written. You do not require to use an external mouse or a keyboard to stay productive, as just the tablet with the S-pen is good. But if you wish to, a Bluetooth Keyboard or a Mouse can also be paired with it.
With the Exynos 9611 processor, you can only play games such as Asphalt 9, PUBG at mid-low graphics settings, and when compared to its sibling the results were not that satisfying.
We ran a couple of benchmarks on it to know the performance of the device compared to its elder sibling. The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite was able to get 1247 Multi-core points and 346 in Single-core score tests of the Geekbench’s results.
The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite runs on One UI 2.0 on top of Android 10. Using the tab gives you a feel of any Samsung smartphone but with a larger screen. The UI is similar to what we have already seen on other devices by the company. With the Smart Stay feature on the tab, the display stays on if you keep on looking at the screen. The interface is clean with a very few but important apps, which come pre-installed on the device such as Netflix, YouTube Music and Microsoft apps.
Multitasking has been made easy with the split-screen feature on the tab. So, if you are the one who gets annoyed by switching back and forth between two apps then you can use this feature. This can be done by opening the recent apps button. Then tap on the app icon which you want to open first and select open in the split-screen view from the options. After this tap on the second app that you want to open and the split-screen will open. The size of each window can be adjusted by holding and dragging the separating line between the two apps and you are good to go. This feature can be used in both portraits as well as landscape mode. We used this feature in the comfort of our home to create new content for our readers while not missing the ongoing virtual launches as the pandemic is still on and the results were very good.
While there is no fingerprint scanner on the Tab S6 Lite you can go for the face recognition for the biometrics.
Up next, we tested the camera performance of the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite. It has two cameras on it, an 8-megapixel rear camera with auto-focus capable of recording videos in 1080p at 30fps. On the front, there is a 5-megapixel selfie camera housed inside a punch-hole design display. Surprisingly, it managed to get some nice shots for us with acceptable details. While the selfie camera is also good for taking selfies but we suggest you use it for video calling and not for photography purposes as it would not be easy to use such a large tablet for that purpose.
During our test, the battery lasted for more than two days on a single full charge. The device comes with a 7,040mAh battery so you do not need to charge it frequently as it delivers satisfactory battery life. But if you love to binge movies and Netflix then it would run on for a day and a half. The battery of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite takes around three hours to fully charge it from zero to 100 percent.
Verdict
Some might call the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite a Samsung Android phone but with a bigger display, but is not that as it can do so much more. The company is offering the Tab at a slightly expensive price range for what it offers. But the S Pen Stylus is an additional accessory which the company is offering with the device at no extra cost that other companies do not offer. So the price is somewhat justified.
As the new trend of online classes is on in full swing across the globe due to the coronavirus pandemic, we think Galaxy Tab S6 Lite would serve well to your children’s requirements from attending virtual classes to taking notes and playing. As it comes preloaded with Microsoft apps you do not have to pay any additional cost to get the subscription.
Bose has launched the QuietComfort Earbuds, delivering all the “quiet” of Bose around-ear noise canceling headphones in a gorgeous in-ear design. Bose also introduces new Sport Earbuds — entirely re-engineered to produce amazing sound from smaller, slimmer enclosures that stay securely in place — almost magically — without pain, pressure, or ear hooks. The QC Earbuds will be sold for $279 (approx. INR 20498.13) and the Sport Earbuds will be sold for $179 (approx. INR 13151.13) starting September 29. However, the pre-ordered for this audio gadget has already stared.
The new QC Earbuds debut proprietary advancements in hardware and software to continue the 20-year legacy of QC headphones. Each bud measures just over an inch long and weighs 0.3 ounces — about the same as a quarter. Yet they perform like every QuietComfort before them, transforming even the harshest environments into hushed sanctuaries — silencing the blare of trucks, buses, and horns during rush hour, or muting the simple distractions from the next room, next office, or the apartment next door.
“We spent a lot of time making sure our new QuietComfort Earbuds were the most effective noise canceling in-ear headphones ever. But they also sound incredible and are a pleasure to wear and use. That’s an unbeatable combination that puts them ahead of the industry and makes them every bit a QuietComfort,” said Mehul Trivedi, category director, Bose wearable audio.
The QC Earbuds come with 11 levels of noise control so you can choose how much of the world you let in or keep out. It’s easy to set preferences and change them anytime — from “transparency” that keeps you aware of your surroundings, to full noise cancellation that lets you tune out completely or hear every detail from your content and conversations.
The new QuietComfort Earbuds have 18 hours of total listening time — 6 hours fully charged and an additional 12 using their charging case. They have a matte finish with metallic and gloss accents and come in two colors: Triple Black and Soapstone.
On the other hand, the Bose Sport Earbuds were engineered from a clean sheet for better motivation, better focus, and a better workout. Each bud houses an entirely new acoustic system using a high-efficiency driver, proprietary port design, and volume-optimized EQ for clear, powerful performance. But that’s just the start of what makes them special.
According to Bose, “The new Sport Earbuds aren’t just named for exercise — they’re made for it. Every component is custom-matched to solve the category’s most common problems. That means the new buds attach to the new StayHear Max tip — and nothing else. Combined, they “lock” in place for high-impact and low-impact exercise without hurting or budging. From HIIT sessions and Peloton’s toughest classes to long-distance running and yoga inversions, Bose Sport Earbuds have almost-magical defiance to shift or fall out. And that’s done without the typical trade-offs — like an irritating style pushed deep inside the ears or wrapped tightly around them.”
The new Sport audio gadget has up to 5 hours of battery life and a charging case that provides up to 10 hours of additional playback time. They come in Triple Black, Baltic Blue, and Glacier White.
The Bose Sport Earbuds are built from the ground up to be the ultimate workout companion. They deliver better audio quality than their predecessor in about half their size. And everything about them is optimized for your performance — how they feel and fit, how easy they are to control, and how durable and reliable they are, whether you’re training at home, the gym, or outdoors.

Moreover, it has also been stated under this report that the new update address bug which was reported by the users while accessing the Storage Usage section as WhatsApp used to crash when a user tried to open this section. However, the bug that reset the recently-used Emojis is yet to be fixed.
Furthermore, it was revealed WhatsApp Web is likely to introduce an enhanced doodles feature that will allow users to add doodles in chat solid wallpaper. However, WABetaInfo further notified that these features are in the developmental phase and it will be available in the messaging platform in future.
Recently, WhatsApp has also introduced a special forwarded label to messages shared in chats that have been forwarded many times. According to the WhatsApp blog post, “These two arrows help people know when they’ve received a message that was not written by close contact. Earlier this year, we set limits on how many times they can be sent at once to maintain the private nature of WhatsApp.”
The WhatsApp blog post had added that the Facebook-owned instant messaging app is piloting a simple way to double-check these messages by tapping a magnifying glass button in the chat. Providing a simple way to search messages that have been forwarded many times may help people find news results or other sources of information about the content they have received.
As per WhatsApp, this feature works by allowing users to upload the message via their browser without WhatsApp ever seeing the message itself. Moreover, Search the web was also rolled out in Brazil, Italy, Ireland, Mexico, Spain, UK, and the US for those on the latest versions of WhatsApp for Android, iOS, and WhatsApp Web. Additionally, WhatsApp has also made it easier to focus on whoever you want by letting you press and hold to maximize a participant’s video to full screen with now up to 8 people on a video call.
As we are inching closer to the next big event that will witness the launch of iPhone 12 series, one leak after another is surfacing online. Now another tipster has showcased a video of the expected 6.1-inch back panel that revealed the iPhone 12 Pro will come fitted with new LiDAR sensor placement.
In a video Twitter, a tipster using the screen name of EverythingApplePro showcased that the back panel will comprise of LiDAR sensor placement, flat sides, smart connector, and various cutouts. Moreover, one gets to see the designated space that fits the wireless charger. If rumours are to be believed, Apple’s upcoming iPhone 12 is somewhat in line with the iPhone 5 and its predecessor. However, there is a change in the position of the SIM-card tray as the iPhone 12 has it on its right panel. As far as the camera is concerned, it is likely that this handset would carry a triple-camera module that’s in line with the already available Apple iPhone 11 series.
Apart from this, another popular leakster Jon Prosser shared that the mass production of Apple iPhone 12 models started. According to Prosser the 120Hz refresh rate display model (codenamed d6x) didn’t go for production. Therefore, there are high chances that the upcoming handsets could offer 60Hz or 90Hz refresh rate displays.
120hz (codename: d6x) didn’t make mass production 😞

In order to make it easier for admins and organizations to protect their users and prevent security breaches right from our own platform, Zoom has rolled out enhanced Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). The Two-Factor Authentication identifies online users by requiring them to present two or more pieces of evidence, or credentials, that authenticate their ownership of the account, such as something the user knows (a password or pin), something the user owns (a smart card or mobile device), or something the user has (fingerprints, voice).
According to an official blog post, the video-conferencing platform revealed that Zoom’s 2FA within our unified communications platform provides a secure way to validate users and protect against security breaches and provides a number of benefits. This includes:
Reduced risk of identity theft and security breaches
With 2FA, organizations can reduce the risk of identity theft and security breaches by adding an extra layer of security that prevents bad actors from accessing accounts by guessing passwords or gaining access to employees’ or students’ devices.
Enhanced compliance
Implementing 2FA helps organizations meet compliance obligations for sensitive data and customer information.
Reduced costs
For small businesses and schools, it can be expensive to pay for an SSO service. Zoom’s 2FA provides a free and effective way to validate users and protect against security breaches.
Easier credential management
2FA provides an additional level of security that spares users from constant password management.
With Zoom’s 2FA, users have the option to use authentication apps that support Time-Based One-Time Password (TOTP) protocol (such as Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, and FreeOTP), or have Zoom send a code via SMS or phone call, as the second factor of the account authentication process.
In order to enable Zoom’s 2FA at the account-level for password-based authentication, account admins should take the following steps:
Sign in to the Zoom Dashboard
In the navigation menu, click Advanced, then Security.
Make sure the Sign in with Two-Factor Authentication option is enabled.
Select one of these options to enable 2FA for:
All users in your account: Enable 2FA for all users in the account.
Users with specific roles: Enable 2FA for roles with the specified roles.
Click Select specified roles, choose the roles, and then click OK.
Users belonging to specific groups: Enable 2FA for users that are in the specified groups. Click the pencil icon, choose the groups, and then click OK.
Click ‘Save’ to confirm your 2FA settings.
The two-factor authentication (2FA) is a two-step sign-in process that requires a one-time code from a mobile app or text message, in addition to the main Zoom sign-in. This provides an additional layer of security since users will need access to their phone to sign in to the Zoom web portal, desktop client, mobile app, or Zoom Room.
