This release also adds the embedded Java database Hyper SQL Database to improve performance for users with huge configuration files, a feature which is disabled by default. The Linux build addresses font issues with the GTK+ native look and feel, and fixes some long-standing issues about microphone level on call setup when using the PulseAudio sound system. Among other notable improvements, the OS X version bundles a Java 8 runtime, enables echo cancelling by default, and uses the CoreAudio subsystem. This release includes security fixes, removes support of the deprecated MSN protocol, along with SSLv3 in XMPP. On February 1, 2015, Hristo Terezov, Ingo Bauersachs and the rest of the team released version 2.6 from their stand at the Free and Open Source Software Developers' European Meeting 2015 event in Brussels.

They lost a point because there has not been a recent independent code audit. On November 4, 2014, "Jitsi + Ostel" scored 6 out of 7 points on the Electronic Frontier Foundation's secure messaging scorecard. To demonstrate how Jitsi Videobridge could be used as a production service, BlueJimp offered a free use of its hosted system at. Later that year initial support was added to the Jitsi Videobridge allowing WebRTC calling from the browser. Jitsi introduced the Videobridge in 2013 to support multiparty video calling with its Jitsi clients using a new Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) architecture. This name originates from the Bulgarian " жици" ( wires). In 2011, after successfully adding support for audio/video communication over XMPP's Jingle extensions, the project was renamed to Jitsi since it was no longer "a SIP only Communicator". In 2009, Emil Ivov founded the BlueJimp company, which has employed some of Jitsi's main contributors, in order to offer professional support and development services related to the project. It was originally released as an example video phone in the JAIN-SIP stack and later spun off as a standalone project. Work on Jitsi (then SIP Communicator) started in 2003 in the context of a student project by Emil Ivov at the University of Strasbourg. Jitsi has received support from various institutions such as the NLnet Foundation, the University of Strasbourg and the Region of Alsace, the European Commission and it has also had multiple participations in the Google Summer of Code program. Other projects include: Jigasi, lib-jitsi-meet, Jidesha, and Jitsi. Jitsi also operates, a version of Jitsi Meet hosted by Jitsi for free community use. Later the team added Jitsi Meet, a full video conferencing application that includes web, Android, and iOS clients. With the growth of WebRTC, the project team focus shifted to the Jitsi Videobridge for allowing web-based multi-party video calling. The Jitsi project began with the Jitsi Desktop (previously known as SIP Communicator). Jitsi is a collection of free and open-source multiplatform voice (VoIP), video conferencing and instant messaging applications for the web platform, Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android.
