A note on security

Dear Zoom users,

Due to security concerns, you must not post your Zoom meeting ID on any public website (especially in Indico and DocDB) 
unless you set a password to protect the meeting. Obviously, you must not post the password on any public website either.

For added security, in meetings in which the host is using their computer, also consider unchecking the option 
"Enable join before host." This will not work for phone-only meetings. Furthermore, the host should end the meeting 
for all participants once the meeting has concluded.

For instructions on how to set a password to protect your meeting, see this video on the Zoom website:
