Instant Messaging Server
Integrated instant messaging server provides companies with a
secure internal IM network. Internal messages need never leave
the corporate network, and are protected by industry leading 256
bit encryption. The Barracuda IM Client is easy to install and
deploy and extremely user friendly, making user adaptation a
breeze.
Security
The Barracuda IM Firewall offers the highest level of message
encryption available on any IM product. Its 256 bit message
encryption ensures that your corporate messages remain private
as long as you are using the Barracuda IM Client. The client
provides users security even outside their corporate network
from anywhere on the Internet.
Logging/Reporting
With the Barracuda IM firewall all instant messaging traffic on
your network is logged.
Public IM Controls
Control of public IM services such as AOL, Yahoo, and MSN has
become essential in order to maintain network security, message
confidentiality, and protection against viruses. The Barracuda
Instant Messaging Firewall provides the ability to log or block
public IM services, scan public IM traffic for viruses, and
manage the identities of public IM users on your network.
Keyword Tools
Keyword notification and content management tools ensure that
your users are adhering to your internal policies and government
compliance regulations. Key words, phrases, and regular
expressions can be identified, removed, or blocked entirely
within IM conversations. If a policy violation is committed, the
appropriate parties can be notified via email or IM. All policy
violations are logged and noted.
Central Administration
The Barracuda Instant Messaging Firewall features an easy-to-use
Web interface allowing for easy and cost effective
administration of the appliance. The Web interface allows you to
define, manage and control corporate IM policies from one
central place.
Barracuda Energize Updates A team of security engineers
at Barracuda Central continuously monitors the Internet for
trends in IM and virus attacks. As they detect trends, updates
are created for the Barracuda IM Firewall. The Barracuda IM
Firewall is then automatically updated with new IM rules, Public
IM IP address ranges and ports, and virus definitions. These
updates require zero administration and ensure that your network
has comprehensive and accurate protection.
Logs and
Graphical Reports System administrators can view logs or
generate graphical reports to provide visibility within the
organization. The Barracuda Instant Messaging Firewall can
provide information on IM conversations, public IM access, file
transfers, presence, viruses, and more.
No Per User Charges Barracuda Instant Messaging
Firewall pricing is simple. Each Barracuda IM Firewall is
designed to handle an approximate number of users. The Barracuda
IM Firewall includes a robust feature set at one fixed price
with no per user charges. This means the system administrator no
longer has to worry about keeping track of new accounts.
End User Controls
The Barracuda IM Firewall provides administrators the ability
not only to set IM policies, but to set default end user
preferences to maintain a uniform IM deployment across your
organization.
Rollout Tools
Unlike other client side technologies, rolling out and
installing client side software is simple. Administrators can
chose to roll the client out to users via an email containing
the download link, install instructions and the users username
and password. Installation is as simple as clicking next, next,
and finish. The zero configuration installer automatically knows
the name of the server to which that user will connect. The
Barracuda Roster Push tool can be used to populate the roster of
a user or entire groups with relevant contacts before first log
on.Check out the
