Once all invited participants have joined, the host can then ‘lock’ the meeting room, in which no additional participants will be able to enter the video call. Use the waiting room and lock the meeting – the waiting room feature allows the meeting host to screen participants before they are allowed to enter a meeting, adding further protection against Zoombombers.Please note: if you provide the meeting URL link the password will be embedded in the link. Meeting attendees will be required to input the password as well as the meeting ID to join the meeting.

Use a Password – you can set a password for your meetings to add an extra layer of protection.

Secondly, the person creating the meeting should choose to generate a random meeting ID rather than use their personal meeting ID to help avoid Zoombombers, as it will be a different ID number each time. Firstly, it is important to only share the meeting ID (or meeting URL link with the ID embedded in it) privately to the intended participants.

Meeting ID – when a Zoom meeting is scheduled it creates a meeting ID number.
