@MauraBeaton Since we’re currently using Zoom for Community Meetings, we might want to take a quick look at these CNET tips for avoiding Zoom bombing: https://www.cnet.com/how-to/no-more-zoombombing-4-steps-to-a-more-secure-zoom-video-chat/

Not trying to be a fearmonger but I’ve seen tweets about people showing up to unsecured meetings and showing videos of ISIS beheadings. Where we can, we should take a few extra steps to protect OHDSI meetings from this kind of malicious internet activity.
