Corporate Instant Messaging

Let employees chat in real-time without leaking company secrets.

Instant messaging is a way of life in today's world, and a large percentage of your employees are probably using it in the workplace.

But all of those chat windows on all of those desktops constitute an unfiltered hole from the internet into your business. Your employees may be inadvertently jeopardizing your business by using free IM products to work together. These public instant messaging tools are increasingly being targeted by developers of malware and viruses, since they effectively bypass all of your security safeguards. Phishing attacks, worms, files, and links can be served up easily to your unsuspecting workforce.
