The University Zoom service provider NORDUnet strongly recommends updating Zoom applications to version 5.15.5 or newer. The update has already been installed on most University computers. The University of Helsinki IT Center will prevent the use of earlier Zoom versions from Wednesday 16 August 2023 onward.

Update your Zoom application as follows:

  • The update will be installed automatically on your University work computer when it is connected to the University network via VPN or wired connection – see IT-Helpdesk instructions for connecting via VPN. Note: the update will be installed as a background process, and you will not receive a separate notification about it.
  • You can also install the update yourself from the University Software Center.
  • Check your Zoom application version by clicking your profile picture and selecting Help -> About Zoom:
  • For your personal home computer you must install the update yourself by clicking your profile picture and selecting Check for updates:

Keeping University systems and applications updated helps us maintain e.g. information security at the University. Thank you for updating!
