Overview

To protect businesses and organizations worldwide, it is critical that the broader community of IT and security professionals report potential vulnerabilities as soon as they are recognized. This allows industry experts to take appropriate action to resolve any vulnerability that is discovered. If you are aware of a potential security vulnerability with any Zip product or service, we encourage you to contact us immediately at [email protected]. All reported vulnerabilities are investigated by the Zip Cybersecurity team.
