Restrict dial-in users from bypassing a meeting lobby

Why This Matters

Allowing dial-in participants to bypass the meeting lobby removes a critical access control point. Without lobby enforcement, anonymous callers can join meetings directly, potentially exposing sensitive discussions to unauthorized individuals. Restricting this setting ensures all external participants must wait for explicit admission by the meeting organizer or presenter.

What Aether365 Checks

Aether365 verifies that dial-in users cannot bypass the meeting lobby in your Teams meeting policies. This check appears in the Aether365 dashboard under Teams checks and identifies policies where the "Allow dial-in users to bypass the lobby" setting is enabled.
