Uninvited guests join video conferences every day. They’re looking for all kinds of information, and your background can tell them a lot.  Do you have possessions worth stealing?  Are there clues to your personal and family identities in plain sight?  What else can participants see or hear from your connection?

Other safeguards:

  • Don’t make your meeting public
  • Password protect your meeting
  • Use a waiting room and only admit invited guests
  • Don’t share your meeting credentials on social media
