MessageDefense, the premier provider of managed messaging security solutions, announced today the availability of their DefendIM secure Instant Messaging service offering.
(PRWEB) October 22, 2004 -- Many experts agree that Instant Messaging clients run on corporate and enterprise networks whether they are endorsed production systems or not. Due to the near real time nature of communications using this medium many employees are registering and using one of several free offerings to communicate more rapidly.
Instant messaging offers employees the response of telephone conversations, with a written record of the conversation for future reference.
Since many organizations use these communications for day-to-day use, the conversations contain company sensitive information that if left un-secured could represent as great a threat as unsecured email or hard copy documents.
DefendIM provides a solution to these problems by offering a secure communications channel for client/server transactions, while ensuring a back-end record of the conversation in a central repository.
DefendIM supports inter-connecting to the big three Instant Messaging networks (AOL/MSN/YAHOO), allowing management to create and enforce acceptable use policies. This comes with an attractive productivity increase and protection from offensive workplace exposures.
The DefendIM offering is provided as a service using a central infrastructure that is accessed by customers over the Internet. Alternatively, an enteprise deployment is offered for large customers based on requirements.
