How Secure is a Google Meet Session

Securing your Google Meet session ensures that your meetings stay private and free of unwanted attendees.

Participant Access without a Google Calendar Invitation

Rancho Google users can enter into any Rancho Google Meet session if they have the link or Rancho nickname for the session. 

• External users without a Google Calendar invitation using the web address for a Google Meet session must request and receive approval to connect.
• Anyone who has dial-in information (phone number and PIN) for a Google Meet session can join via telephone. (We have disabled the ability to call in to a Google Meet)

Participant Access with a Google Calendar Invitation

Anyone invited to a Google Calendar event containing a Google Meet session can access it.

Securing Shared Google Calendars

Google Meet session details in shared Google Calendars are viewable if calendar sharing permissions are set to anything other than “See only free/busy (hide details)”.
