Symantec Corp. has announced the availability of secure instant messaging (IM) and real-time communications (RTC) management solution IM Manager 8.0. According to the company the solution enables organisations to control the use of public IM services and enterprise RTC platforms and manage compliance with legal and corporate governance policies.
"Corporate adoption of IM has been growing at more than 200 percent per year," said Carlin Wiegner, senior director of Messaging and Web Security solutions at Symantec.
IM delivers significant business value by transforming the way in which employees communicate and collaborate. But Research have found that most corporate IM usage remains unmonitored and unprotected and the infection of one computer can result in the rapid proliferation of viruses, worms, and spyware within corporate environments.
Symantec said IM Manager 8.0 provides powerful new proactive threat protection and remediation that secures the real-time communications infrastructure against external threats such as worms, spam, viruses, phishing, and other unwanted content.
Symantec said IM Manager 8.0 also provides customers with innovative granular policy controls for all aspects of IM and real-time communications, including application sharing, file sharing, audio, video, and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
IM Manager 8.0 Manager is scheduled to be available in APAC in May.
