DENVER, Dec. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Brundidge & Stanger P.C., a leading nationally recognized Intellectual Property law firm, today announced that it has commenced a patent infringement complaint against Zoom Video Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZM) on November 9th, 2021, for infringement of its client Cyph, Inc.'s patents and inventions.
Here are the details of the lawsuit:
Cyph filed a lawsuit November 9, 2021 valued at hundreds of millions of dollars against Zoom (NASDAQ: ZM) for intellectual property (IP) infringement.
From November 2020 until now, anytime individuals used Zoom and turned on their End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) encryption option, they were using Cyph's technology (not Zoom's).
Zoom told companies that needed to protect consumer data (such as healthcare companies) that their data was encrypted and benefited financially. Meanwhile, Zoom was using Cyph's proprietary technology that they did not pay for.
Cyph, Inc. has developed and patented a useful and highly valuable information security system based on advanced encryption technology, which provides End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) for secure communications.
Cyph's patented technologies are highly sought after for security systems and for secure communications across mobile and fixed networks. Cyph's patent portfolio includes numerous patents which it alleges are infringed by Zoom (NASDAQ: ZM) and others today. Prior to the patented inventions of Cyph, Inc., secure and efficient multi-party communications across mobile and fixed networks did not exist. Companies like Zoom (NASDAQ: ZM) could not provide E2EE technologies today without practicing Cyph's patented inventions.
