Advertising this name publicly, for example on social media, is something you should only ever do if you truly are comfortable with maximum exposure and the possibility of unwelcome visitors. You shouldn’t send it to anyone you do not want in your meeting. One has to really keep in mind that the name of a meeting is sensitive and needs to be protected. This is generally not much of a problem for small size deployments (remember you can host your own Jitsi Meet ) or low profile meetings but it may be a problem if you are using a large and public deployment such as or if there is significant interest in your meeting. We don’t want others accidentally stumbling into our meetings, just as we want to keep pranksters and snoopers away. That said, since a name is all that one needs to actually access a room, we have to be really careful about how we choose and advertise them. Some of the systems that let people “pre-create” rooms, have subtle indications that let a potential attacker distinguish reserved from unreserved meetings which then makes the reserved meetings easier to identify and target. If someone joins the same room again, a brand new meeting is created with the same name and there is no connection to any previous meeting that might have been held with the same name. They get created when the first participant joins and they are destroyed when the last one leaves. To begin with, all meeting rooms are ephemeral: they only exist while the meeting is actually taking place. In many respects Jitsi meetings are simply private by design. Fully secure you say… What does this mean exactly? Security and privacy are very broad topics so we are going to try and go through some practical use cases to demonstrate what’s at play. That means, amongst other things, we are very mindful of the security and privacy aspects that affect our users.

They offer professional support and development services. SIP Communicator is renamed Jitsi (from the Bulgarian “жици”, or “wires”), since it now also supports audio and video over XMPP’s Jingle extensions and it would be silly to still call it SIP Communicator.Įmil Ivov and Yana Stamcheva found the Blue Jimp company, which employs Jitsi’s main contributors.
The client of the conference organizer acts as a video router. Jitsi adds video conferencing capabilities based on the concept of routing video streams.
This is a first step to its importance in today’s WebRTC ecosystem. Later this year Jitsi Videobridge adds support for ICE and DTLS/SRTP, thus becoming compatible with WebRTC clients. Jitsi’s video routing capabilities are extracted in a separate server application and Jitsi Videobridge is born. Using a prototype from Philipp Hancke as a basis, the Jitsi community starts the Jitsi Meet project: a Web Conferencing application that rivals Hangouts and Skype Jitsi now powers all 8×8 Video Meetings and continues to grow in the heart of many successful initiativesĪtlassian acquires Blue Jimp, making a long-term investment in keeping Jitsi open source, community-based, and pushing the envelope of great video conferences.
