Abstract
A virtual meeting service receives a request from a participant through a computing device to join a virtual meeting. The request includes an identifier, which the virtual meeting service uses to identify one or more policies of the virtual meeting. The virtual meeting service, upon identifying these one or more policies, evaluates the one or more policies to determine whether to enable the computing device to be used to allow the participant to join the virtual meeting. If the virtual meeting service determines that the participant can join the virtual meeting, the virtual meeting service transmits a request to a telecommunications channel to connect the computing device to the virtual meeting, allowing the participant to join the virtual meeting.
