I need to know if there is a security setting whereby if I, the host, lose my internet connection, that the participants in my meeting are disabled from interacting with one another or completely removed from the meeting. I have read other posts dating back to 2023 on this topic but there doesn't seem to be an answer. This is deeply concerning to me for the work that I do.

Hello @KariJ2,
Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're glad to have you here.
Zoom does not currently have a setting that automatically removes or disables participants if the host loses internet connection. We recommend assigning a trusted co-host to ensure that, in the event you lose connection, someone is available to manage or promptly end the meeting.

I appreciated your response. That solution does not satisfy my need. I recommend that zoom develop a security setting for this that recognizes when the host disappears. This is problematic.
