This provides administrators with enormous flexibility when it comes to deciding which capabilities will be made available to which users. Conferencing policies can be configured at the global scope or at the per-user scope. Conferencing policies determine the features and capabilities that can be used in a conference, including everything from whether or not the conference can include IP audio and video to the maximum number of people who can attend a meeting.
In Skype for Business Online, conferences are managed by using conferencing policies. If your organization is required to keep a record of all electronic communication, you might want to disable annotations. For example, by default ,meeting participants are allowed to make annotations on shared content however, these annotations are not saved when the meeting is archived. In addition, there might be occasional legal concerns. In some cases, there might be security concerns: by default, anyone, including unauthenticated users, can participate in meetings and save any of the slides or handouts distributed during those meetings. It's important for you to maintain control over conferences and conference settings.
