Zoom Webinar Instructions and Best Practices
Recommended Tips for Securing your Zoom Session:
- Ensure the Meeting ID is automatically generated and that the meeting has a password.
- Do not publicly post the Meeting ID and password. This includes posting to the UGA Master Calendar, which is public.
- Use the waiting room function to control when participants can join the meeting.
- Designate multiple hosts who will help manage the waiting room and eject participants who disrupt the meeting.
- Disable the “join before host” feature and limit screen sharing to the host.
- Consider requiring MyID authentication for the meeting, so only those with UGA MyID accounts can attend.
- Review settings prior to meetings to ensure best practices are in place.

Zoom sessions can be recorded on your local computer, or to the Zoom cloud. Cloud-recorded videos are transferred automatically to your Kaltura account (see below) for long term storage and access.
Kaltura is a media storage and streaming solution offered by UGA. You can access Kaltura by going to kaltura.uga.edu and logging in. All cloud-recorded Zoom videos automatically transfer to your Kaltura account within an hour or so of completion. Kaltura is your Zoom video storage; do not depend on Zoom for video storage.
Kaltura is also integrated with eLC, allowing easy access.
