Boost Productivity with Business IM
Over the past decade, instant messaging has grown from the consumer space, for personal and recreational chatting, to business IM, as one of the top communication tools in the corporate world. Individuals who once only used AIM®, ICQ®, MSN® and Yahoo!® Messenger at home, learned that real-time, presence-based messaging could transcend the corporate space, and began taking advantage of business IM, by utilizing the same tools for efficient trading, customer service, and inter-office communication.
With added protection and security from Presensoft, these consumer instant messaging services can open new doors for both business-to-business and business-to-consumer communication. Business IM requires a unique set of security and compliance tools, to protect your organization, your employees, and your customers, while enabling them to enjoy all the productivity enhancing features of instant messaging.
Security, Privacy, and Compliance for Business IM
If your employees use AIM®, ICQ®, MSN® or Yahoo!® Messenger for corporate communication without Presensoft products, your company is at risk for a number of security and privacy threats, and possibly in violation of federal regulations for electronically stored information. Presensoft offers a unique set of instant messaging management programs designed to transform public, consumer-grade IM clients into secure, private, and compliant business IM tools, that can be customized to meet your company’s needs.
To enable true business IM in your organization, it must be as highly secure and compliant as telephone and email communication. Taking instant messaging security to that level requires four basic features, and Presensoft has the only line of solutions to achieve all of them. Business IM with Presensoft means total security, privacy, compliance and non-repudiation, making public instant messaging even more secure than email communication. The four components that comprise secure business IM include: customizing access and authorization controls for IM users, logging and retaining IM data, encrypting IM conversations, and authenticating IM users for identity management.
