[Lnc-business] Fwd: Zoom Meetings Security Enhancements - Coming April 5th

Sun Apr 5 00:29:29 EDT 2020

Remember that our electronic meeting rules say:

"If the committee permits, participants other than members or alternates of
the committee may observe videoconferences using the Electronic Meeting
Provider (and not by a toll-free number) with their web cameras off and
their microphones muted"

While Zoom seems to have fewer glitches with many simultaneous video feeds,
Adobe Connect gives the host much more targeted control over who can and
can't turn on their microphones and webcams.  Adobe Connect lets the host
pick and choose which people can have microphones and can have webcams.
They can be disallowed by default and then individually allowed only for
committee members.  Unless I'm overlooking some options, in Zoom it looks
like the options are allow for all or only for the host.  If there are
similar options are in Zoom, could someone tell me where to find them?
