Just say no to public Instant Messaging
Using public / free instant messaging solutions like AOL, MSN, ICQ or Yahoo are not without their fair share of risks as they were never designed to meet the security or privacy requirements of business users.  Some of these risks are:

Confidentiality: Information exchanged over public IM networks can leak to anyone globally.  Unencrypted data sent over the Internet can be intercepted and read by third parties.

Viruses: IM is a target for viruses and spyware.  IM is also widely used to distribute such security threats.

Security: Any user can contact you or your business colleagues.  There is no way to manage, authenticate and authorize your users.


Converse enhances your Instant Messaging experience with enterprise-level features such as centralized administration, file transfer capabilities and protection against other public Instant Messenger connections, ensuring your corporate data security while improving collaboration and productivity.
