An unlisted participant is an individual who joins a meeting without official registration or an invitation. This can occur in virtual or physical meetings when access controls are not strictly enforced or when meeting links are shared inadvertently or publicly. Unlisted participants may attend meetings intentionally or accidentally, and their presence can impact the dynamics of the meeting. Meeting organizers often employ various measures to manage unlisted participants, such as password protection, waiting rooms, or attendee verification, to ensure that only authorized individuals can actively participate in the meeting discussions. Managing unlisted participants helps maintain the security, integrity, and purpose of the meeting while preventing potential disruptions or breaches of privacy.
