Hotspot Authentication is the process of logging into a secure network, often required when joining online meetings from public locations or using mobile devices. This authentication method ensures that participants can access the internet and connect to online meetings securely. When connecting to a public Wi-Fi hotspot or a mobile data network, users may be prompted to enter authentication credentials, such as a username and password, or complete multi-factor authentication (MFA) to verify their identity. Hotspot authentication adds an additional layer of security and prevents unauthorized access to both the internet and online meeting platforms, safeguarding sensitive meeting data and communication. It is particularly important for maintaining security and privacy when participating in virtual meetings from diverse locations.
