One of the advantages of using the EventPilot integration with Zoom is the high level of security. The link to the webinar is not publicized via the app and only becomes available to logged in users a few minutes before the session starts. All Webinars and Meetings are automatically password protected. 

Please stress to your 

• speakers and panelists to not share any of the personalized links they receive from Zoom or ATIV Software publicly to prevent unauthorized access.
• attendees to not share Webinar access details if potentially visible in the Zoom session .

Webinars

Attendees can: 

• raise their hand
• chat or submit questions via Q&A (if available - hosts can control what options are available to attendees)

Host can:

• control a variety of Webinar settings 
• mute and unmute participants
• promote other participants to be panelists or co-hosts / demote panelists or co-hosts to participants

Panelists

• control their audio and video

Webinars are set up to be in practice session mode. This means that the session is not available for the audience until the host starts broadcasting to the audience. 

Virtual Sessions (Zoom Meetings)
