CSUB Security Bulletin - Zoom Screen Sharing Security

When disseminating Zoom meeting details, we strongly recommend that you do not publicly post the meeting details. Rather email or text the Meeting ID only to those who should be participating the in meeting.

Avoid hosting large meetings or public events using your Personal Meeting ID (PMI) for your meeting ID. Your PMI is basically one continuous meeting and you don't want trolls invading your personal virtual space. Instead, Information Technology Services suggests using random meeting IDs for your large meetings.

If you are scheduling a meeting where sensitive information will be discussed, we recommend leaving Enable Join Before Host turned OFF.

Participants can still connect before the host. They will be in the queue and automatically join when the host joins the meeting.

The join before host option can be convenient for allowing others to continue with a meeting if you are not available to start the meeting, but with this option enabled, the first person who joins the meeting will automatically be made the host and will have full control over the meeting.

Your CSUB Zoom administrator has set this option to 'Off' by default. If you have this feature set to 'On', consider turning it back off if your meeting does not need this feature enabled.

In larger and public meetings, attendees can be disruptive with unwanted speech or sounds. Participants can be muted until the host gives them permission to speak.

Requireing Only Authenticated Users Can Join ensures that only attendees can join the meeting using an allowed email address with thier Zoom account. The default authentication option @csub.edu email only will only permit admittance if the attendee is using a Zoom account registered to an CSUB email account.

If you wish to add an exception to your meeting you can click the Edit button and add additional domains to your meeting seperateing them by a comma and a wild card. For example, somedomain.com can be added by placing " ,*.somedomain.com " witout the quotes after the previous domain.

New meetings New meetings scheduled with passcodes will operate much in the same way as previous meetings without a passcode. Zoom links for meetings with a passcode will have the passcode embedded in the link. Passcodes need to be entered when attendees join:

• Without Authentication
• By Meeting ID

Edit and Updating Existing Meetings It is important to note that Any meetings edited and updated to include a passcode will create a new link for your Zoom meeting. This may require you to distribute a new link or provide the passcode to your attendees. For example, if the existing Zoom link is https://csub.zoom.us/j/1234567890 and you edit this meeting to add a passcode to it. A new modified link will then be generated in your meeting schedule. https://csub.zoom.us/j/1234567890 becomes https://csub.zoom.us/j/1234567890?pwd=dGxWSDGEFKc2podsfczY0VGdtWklEMnBodz58409. The old link will still work but will require those joining to enter the new passcode.

• If you distributed a link copied from Zoom that was updated to include a passcode, you will need to provide a new link or the passcode to your participants
• If your Zoom link for BlackBoard or Canvas was created using the integrated tool, your link within Blackboard or Canvas will automatically be updated. It is still recommended to provide the passcode to attendees in the event they are prompted to enter one.

Using the Waiting Room When joining Attendees will enter a staging area until they are admitted to the meeting. By default, the Host or Co-host can admit those in the waiting room to the meeting. Attendees can be permitted to allow others to join by setting a global option which can be found below. If you would like to mitigate the use of the waiting room and not have passcode enabled, you can set special rules to allow attendees to bypass the waiting room. Please be advised that this is a global setting and will apply to all meetings you host. Waiting Room Bypass You can configure your universal waiting room options to alleviate how cumbersome it is to manage participants’ entry into your Zoom sessions. Waiting Room Bypass is a global setting that will apply to all meetings you schedule on your account

• Login to https://zoom.csub.edu and click on “Sign In”
• Click on Settings from the left menu
• At the top you will see Waiting Room Options, click on Edit Options. There are two bypass options to select from
• Users not in your account : This setting will allow attendees who have signed Zoom by Single Sign On (SSO) at least once to bypass the waiting room.

Once all the participants have joined the meeting, the host can lock the meeting, thus blocking anyone else from joining the meeting.

• Select Manage Participants at the bottom of the Zoom window
• At the bottom of the Participants panel, select More
• From the list that appears, select Lock Meeting

If you have already begun a session and find an unwanted attendee has joined:

• If the Participants panel is not visible, select Manage Participants at the bottom of the Zoom window
• Next to the person you want to remove, select More
• From the list that appears, select Remove

Breakout Rooms are great for group work during a lecture. Breakout Rooms allow you to split your Zoom meeting in up to 50 separate sessions. The host can choose to split the participants of the meeting into these separate sessions automatically or manually, and can switch between sessions at any time.

• Room assignments can be built and managed by both the host or co-host.

• Attendees using client version 5.0.2 or erlier, or connected by web will require the host to place them in the desired room.
• Up to 50 breakout rooms can be created
• Up to 200 attendees and 50 breakout rooms can be preset before the meeting starts if enabled in your meeting preferences
• Breakout room participants have full audio, video and screen share capabilities
• Options include
• Placing in rooms automtaically
• Allowing return to main meeting at any
• Timer limit
• Countdown until rooms close

If the meeting is being cloud recorded, it will only record the main room, regardless of what room the meeting host is in. If local recording is being used, it will record the room the participant who is recording is in. Multiple participants can record locally.

For detailed information on manaaging breakout rooms, see the Official Zoom Breakout Room Documentation on the Zoom Support Website .

Regular Zoom Meetings can host up to 300 participants. Webinars can be expanded up to 3,000 participants. Webinars are ideal for events expected to exceed or be close to 300 in attendance. They are also ideal for securing high profile events.
