  • Passcodes and Waiting Rooms - The easiest way to secure your meeting
    • A Passcode adds an additional level of protection to your Zoom Meeting. The passcode often appears as a change in the link to the meeting:
      • Example Zoom link without a password: rider.zoom.us/j/357049427
      • Example Zoom link with a password: rider.zoom.us/j/357049427?pwd=VFZXTFpHNW8ydlJMb1pEeEFfdrtUdz09
    • By default, your Rider Zoom account will automatically set a passcode for each meeting that is scheduled. 
      • To ensure this setting is enabled, navigate to rider.zoom.us and view your upcoming meetings.  Any meetings that do not have a passcode or waiting room enabled will appear with a red exclamation point in the Title.
    • The Waiting Room feature allows the host to control when a participant joins the meeting. As the meeting host, you can admit attendees one by one, or hold all attendees in the Waiting Room and admit them all at once.
      • Instructors can designate a GA or another student co-host to admit students from the Waiting Room into the class.
