Info

For the safety and privacy of our NUS community and friends when Zooming, please note:

  1. Do not share the meeting ID and passcode on social media. Remind your participants not to do so as well.
    CIT will not hesitate to suspend any NUS Zoom account and delete meetings without prior notice.

  2. Waiting Room is highly recommended.
    Host will have to admit participants from the waiting room into the meeting room.

    If the name that join doesn't look familiar, you can message them to leave the meeting and rename themselves properly before joining in again.

  3. Disable Join before host option is recommended. 
    Participants can only join after host has launched the Zoom session.

  4. Enable "Only authenticated users can join" is recommended. 
    Select "Sign in to Zoom for NUS Staff and Students only". 
    This will restrict so that only NUS Staff and Students with NUS Zoom accounts will be able to join the meeting.

  5. Update your Zoom Meeting Desktop Client and Mobile Application and inform your participants to do the same.

  6. Familiarize yourself with the new the Security button.
    It gives you quick access on managing what participants can do in your meeting.
