How does the speaker prevent attendees from recording a meeting

How does the meeting Manager prevent Users from Recording a Meeting?

2 REPLIES 2

Zoom by default only allows the host/co-hosts to record the meeting. The host would have to grant "Allow to Record Locally" privilege to any participant in order for them to record the meeting.

 

This unfortunately does not stop somebody determined to record the meeting from using any number of external methods to do so. Screen recorders, using their mobile phone, 3rd party apps, etc.

This happened to me yesterday. I agreed to a recording, presuming it was from my co - host. Is there any way to find out which attendee recorded the meeting?
