Maintaining Zoom Privacy

We recommend the following steps to help maintain the privacy of your Zoom meetings:

  • Password protect your meeting.
  • Only enable participant sharing when you have a need for it.
  • Use a waiting room.
  • Lock your meeting room after all students/participants have joined.

View best practices for maintaining Zoom privacy for step-by-step instructions on the above suggestions.

Keep these steps on stopping a Zoombombing handy so that you know what to do in the event that it happens during one of your meetings.
