Security News > 2020 > November > Zoom rolls out security enhancements to stop zoombombing trolls
Zoom has announced today the rollout of new security enhancements designed to help meeting hosts to block zoombombing attempts and participants to report misbehaving users.
Zoombombing happens when Zoom meetings are joined by unauthorized third parties with the goal to disrupt ongoing sessions and harass participants.
The first new security feature added by Zoom, dubbed Suspend Participant Activities and enabled by default for all Zoom users, allows hosts and co-hosts to temporarily pause meetings and quickly remove any disruptive participants.
The second feature, known as Report by Participants, also makes it possible for meeting participants to report zoombombing trolls by clicking the Security badge on the top-left side of the Zoom client window.
The new security enhancements are immediately available to all users of Zoom desktop clients for macOS, Windows, Linux, and mobile apps, with web client and VDI users to get access later this year.
