In-Meeting Tools:
You can use the tool labeled “Suspend Participant Activities”.
During a disruption, click “Security” in the Zoom host menu, then click Suspend Participant Activities. This "locks down" the meeting by stopping all video, audio, in-meeting chat, annotation, screen sharing, and recording, and allows the host to report the disruptive participant.

Zoom Meeting vs. Zoom Webinar
It is recommended to use Zoom webinar for external meetings/events. This allows for better control and less chances for a Zoom "bombing" or disruption.
