Begin Scanning a Zoom App

Authorize
Data Security
to connect to Zoom to scan all content shared within the app.
To connect a Zoom app and begin scanning assets, you need to:
  • Ensure that you have a Zoom account with Administrator role.
    Enable account-level audio transcription on Zoom.
  • Grant
    Data Security
    access to Zoom.
  • Add the Zoom app to
    Data Security
    , providing
    Data Security
    information about your Zoom account.
Support for automated remediation capabilities varies by SaaS application.

Add Zoom App

In order for
Data Security
to scan assets, you must consent to specific permissions during adding the Zoom app.
  1. Enable audio transcription on Zoom.
    Zoom supports audio transcript when you record on Cloud, not Local.
  2. (
    Recommended
    ) Add your Zoom domain as an internal domain.
  3. Sign out of all Zoom accounts.
    Doing so ensures that you sign in under the correct account. Additionally, Chrome caches credentials. Log in using an Incognito window to avoid applying those cached credentials.
  4. To add the Zoom app, go to
    Data Security
    Applications
    Add Application
    Zoom
    .
    1. Select
      Connect to Zoom Account
      .
    2. Enter your team’s Zoom domain, then
      Continue
      .
    3. Sign in
      to Zoom account with Administrator role.
    4. Review and
      Authorize
      the requested permissions.
      Data Security
      requires these permissions to scan your assets on Zoom.
      After authentication,
      Data Security
      adds the new Zoom app to the list of Cloud Apps as Zoom n, where n is the number of Zoom app instances that you have connected to
      Data Security
      . You’ll specify a descriptive name soon.

Troubleshooting Onboarding for Zoom App

To ensure that your app has onboarded correctly without any issues in authentication or permissions, Data Security performs validation checks between the onboarding and scanning process. You can start scanning only after a successful validation. For Zoom, the following validation happens:
  • Validating Permissions
After the validation is successful,
Data Security
displays the following:
If the
Validating Permissions
check fails, try the following:
  1. Ensure you have administrator permissions.
  2. Go to your
    Zoom app directory
    and check if your Palo Alto Networks application is listed in the list of installed apps. Following are the app names for specific regions:
    • India region: SAAS Security API for Zoom - IN
    • Australia region: SaaS Security API for Zoom -AUS
    • Japan region: Palo Alto Networks NG-CASB - JP

      to save your changes.
  2. Next step
    : Proceed to scanning and monitoring results.

Start Scanning and Monitor Results

When you add a new cloud app, then enable scanning,
Data Security
automatically scans the cloud app against the default data patterns and displays the match occurrences. You can take action now to improve your scan results and identify risks.
  1. To start scanning the new Zoom app for incidents, go to
    Data Security
    Applications
    Zoom
    Enable Scanning
    .
  2. During the discovery phase, as
    Data Security
    scans files and matches them against enabled policy rules:
    • Verify that
      Data Security
      displays assets.
    • Verify that your default policy rules are effective. If the results don’t capture all the risks or you see false positives, proceed to the next step to improve your results.
  3. (
    Optional
    ) Modify match criteria for existing policy rules.
  4. (
    Optional
    ) Add new policy rules.
    Consider the business use of your cloud app, then identify risks unique to your enterprise. As necessary, add new:
  5. (
