Zoom Security Shield

In my last Zoom post, I mentioned the Lock Meeting feature in Zoom for closing your virtual classroom door.  It was brought to my attention that you can also lock the meeting through the security sheild in Zoom.  This prompted the question, what is the security shield.

Security Sheild in Zoom

The security shield is located in the Zoom tool bar.  


Use the security sheild to quickly change settings in your Zoom session, including locking your meeting and enabling the waiting room.  It can also be used to change participant settings for sharing participant screen, allowing participants to use chat, rename themselves, and to mute the entire class.

Think of this button as your go-to when things go wrong in your classroom.

BTW - Thanks, Phil for enlightening me to this feature!
