===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.
===Lock the meeting=== Itā€™s always smart to lock your front door, even when youā€™re inside the house. When you lock a Zoom Meeting thatā€™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".

===Familiarize yourself with your Zoom settings=== (https://zoom.us/profile/setting) and features. Understand how to protect your virtual space when you need to.
Remove unwanted or disruptive participants: From that Participants menu, you can mouse over a participantā€™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 canā€™t rejoin the meeting. But you can toggle your settings to allow removed participants to rejoin, in case you boot the wrong person.
