Overview:
With the added usage of Zoom meetings across the world, there are people exploiting open meetings by joining the meeting and sharing very inappropriate material. There are now reports this has happened to University of Idaho Zoom sessions. In response to this the University of Idaho changed Zoom default settings; only the host can share. This article gives links on how the host can change those settings to allow participants to share. To add more security, you can also restrict access to a meeting to just University of Idaho employees and students. It also links on other features Zoom has to make a meeting private.
