Zoom is introducing a new feature that will let users report meeting participants in a move to deter gatecrashers.
The video-conferencing company is introducing a dedicated 'report user to Zoom' button in an upcoming update as it looks to put an end to the troublesome trend of 'Zoom bombing', which has left the company in hot water in recent weeks.
Zoom has since taken steps to fix this, introducing passwords and waiting rooms for all Zoom meetings by default, and removing meeting IDs from the top of the Zoom application window.
The latest version of Zoom will also feature enhanced encryption for the platform's phone client.
