If you are joining a meeting but do not want to install the Zoom client, you can use Zoom from your web browser. After you're prompted to download the client, you should see a link at the bottom of the web page, allowing you to go to join the meeting in the browser. '''Note: this will not work on a mobile device.'''

==Prevent Unwanted Zoom Participants==
Once in a meeting, uninvited guests can listen in on discussions, capture screenshots of shared content, and even disrupt the meeting with unwanted video, audio, or shared content.
If someone you don't know shows up in your meeting, you should take it seriously; it's possible that these incidents may constitute a phishing attempt to obtain confidential information or access to RCS services.
<br />
 
'''Lock the meeting -''' It’s always smart to lock your front door, even when you’re inside the house. When you lock a Zoom Meeting that’s already started, no new participants can join, even if they have the meeting ID and password (if you have required one).
*In the meeting, click Manage Participants at the bottom of your Zoom window.
*In the Participants pop-up, click the button that says "More".

*Click "Lock Meeting".

'''Waiting Rooms -''' The Waiting Room is a helpful feature for hosts to control who comes and goes. If you have Waiting rooms enabled on a meeting, you can go [https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115000332726-Waiting-Room#h_f493a86f-7d08-4e3b-9d6d-9b236fe9cdcd here] to see Zoom's documentation on using them.
You can also choose not to allow participants to rename themselves.
<br />
 
'''Familiarize yourself with your Zoom settings -''' Understand how to protect your virtual space when you need to. You can access Zoom Settings and features [https://zoom.us/profile/setting here].
 
*Remove unwanted or disruptive participants: From that Participants menu, you can mouse over a participant’s name, and several options will appear, including Remove. Click that to kick someone out of the meeting.
*Allow removed participants to rejoin: When you do remove someone, they can’t rejoin the meeting. But you can toggle your settings to allow removed participants to rejoin, in case you boot the wrong person.
