Internet messaging or LAN messaging?
Attacks on IM programs (such as Trillion Messenger, MSN Messenger, AIM, ICQ, and so on) fall into the same categories as other network attacks. Some attacks take advantage of bugs or weaknesses in the software; others exploit human foibles. Most IM systems were not designed with security in mind. Using an instant messenger (IM) program seems like a harmless way to have a conversation. Unfortunately, IM can be exploited to damage, commandeer, or infect your machine.
The number of people using instant messaging (IM) software at work is set soar over the next few years, as part of a wider boom that will see more than a trillion IMs sent worldwide each day by 2006, according to the latest research. And none of the popular IM clients offers strong authentication or encryption, so they are vulnerable to account hijacking and eavesdropping for valuable or damaging company information divulged by unwitting employees.
The best way to reap the benefits of corporate IM while protecting your company may be to invest in an enterprise IM solution.
Benefits of Lan based Instant Messenger are:
- Messaging Encryption
- Enhanced customization options
- 24-Hour support technical support
- Secure as communication stays on the LAN, never
goes onto the internet
