Safer dissertations in Zoom
- Mute all participants upon entry by default.
- Activate the waiting room to be able to approve who can join the meeting.
- Make yourself the only one to be able to share the screen.
- Lock the meeting when it has started and no further participants should be able to join. You will find this setting once the meeting has started.
- Have a co-host who can manage the administration in Zoom during your meeting. The co-host can for example accept people from the waiting room, remove participants or un-mute participants.
