Two service options

Managed Public IM

If your enterprise uses IM over public networks such as MSN, Yahoo!, and AOL, Managed Public IM delivers strong security and lets you decide which individuals can access specific IM networks.

Enterprise IM

If you operate IM over your own network using Microsoft Live Communications Server 2005, Enterprise IM makes IM safer by encrypting chat between users, providing user authentication and search capabilities, and facilitating Microsoft Outlook for greater efficiency.
