Methods and systems for transmitting content during a networked conference. In an embodiment, a method is provided for secure access to online events. The method includes receiving a request from a user to access an online event, obtaining a user
email address, an event identifier and an event passcode, and hashing the user
email address, the event identifier and the event passcode to generate a
ticket hash value. The method also includes forming a secure
ticket that comprises the
ticket hash value, and transmitting the secure ticket to the user. The method also includes receiving the secure ticket from the user when the user want to access the event, hashing the user
email address, the event identifier, and the event passcode to generate a confirming hash value, and comparing the two hash values and granting event access to the user if the two hash values match.
