Handshake Authentication is a security method employed in online meetings to verify the identities of participants before granting access to the meeting. This process typically involves a mutual exchange of authentication credentials, ensuring that participants are who they claim to be. Handshake authentication may utilize cryptographic keys, digital certificates, or multi-factor authentication (MFA) methods to establish secure connections and prevent unauthorized access. By implementing handshake authentication, online meeting platforms bolster security measures, safeguard sensitive information, and protect against potential intrusions or malicious attacks, contributing to the overall integrity and trustworthiness of the virtual meeting environment.
