## Jitsi Meet on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS by cloudimg
Jitsi Meet is a fully encrypted, open-source video conferencing platform that runs entirely on your own infrastructure. There are no third-party accounts, no per-minute fees and no data leaving your server: participants join a meeting straight from their browser, with no plugin or app to install. This cloudimg image delivers the complete Jitsi Meet stack fully installed and configured as system services, hardened with secure-domain authentication and a unique moderator account generated on the first boot of every VM. Backed by 24/7 expert support.
Self-Hosted Video Conferencing
Browser-based, fully encrypted meetings on your own server - no accounts, no per-minute fees, no plugin. The four components (prosody for signalling/auth, jicofo for the conference focus, the WebRTC video bridge for media, and nginx for the web app over HTTPS) run as system services.
Secure By Default
A stock Jitsi server lets anyone who can reach it create a room. This image enables secure-domain authentication so only an authenticated moderator can open a meeting, while invited guests join an open room with a single click.
Secure First Boot
On the first boot of every VM a one-shot service registers a fresh moderator account with a strong unique password, sets the public hostname from the VM address, generates a matching certificate, and writes the moderator password to a root-only file. No shared or default credentials ship in the image. The prosody XMPP authentication state lives on a dedicated Azure data disk.
