Bomber mirrored an attendees video

Capturing an attendees video from a Zoom meeting is pretty easy, as well. One could just PIN the video they wish to capture to their 2nd monitor, capture it with OBS, vMix, etc and then designate the OBS, vMix output as the camera into Zoom.

Unfortunately, we can't just stop bad behavior, and tougher than that in your case is bad behavior from somebody who is tech savvy.

Here are a few items that can help, a lot...

1. A Waiting Room that never gets turned-off.
2. A Waiting Room bouncer who manages it through-out the meeting. They message those in the waiting room requiring them to provide a First and Last name. They compare that against the existing attendees in the meeting looking for duplicates.
3. Meeting registration requirement
4. Zoom Authentication requirement
5. Do not allow attendees to unmute. Instead, require the use of raising the digital hand, then have the host/co-host Request to Unmute when they wish to ask a question.
6. Use Focus Mode to remove everybody's video from everybody else, except those that are spotlighted by the host.
7. I'd highly suggest getting very comfortable with quickly removing a bad apple from your meeting.
   1. Report them to the Zoom Trust & Safety
   2. Enable "Do Not Allow Removed Attendees to Log Back In"
8. There are many other best practices. I'm including a link to a great list of best practices.
   1. https://explore.zoom.us/docs/doc/Securing%20Your%20Zoom%20Meetings.pdf
9. It's about impossible to stop all bad behavior, but there are a lot of options that let you get pretty darn close.
10. I find that many of the meetings that get Zoom Bombed have been configured for the convenience of the attendees, the host didn't want to burden them with a couple of extra steps. Unfortunately, a meeting that is convenient and easy to get into for the intended attendees, is a meeting that is a perfect target for someone who wishes to cause issues, and just for fun, nothing else.
