Instant messaging has become a formal mode of business communication in many companies today. Like email, IM correspondences often describe corporate plans, intentions, and knowledge, and accordingly, can constitute business records. As such, instant messages can be subject to regulatory audit or legal discovery, and if mismanaged, can put organizations are considerable business risk.

Organizations need a secure means of capturing, monitoring, retaining, and destroying the IM communications within the enterprise. They also need a means of centrally controlling network applications like IM, to ensure that usage remains in accordance with corporate policy.

Together, Open Text and FaceTime® extend the industry standard in IM security, management, and compliance into the ECM environment. By combining the strengths of Open Text and FaceTime, organizations can bring to instant messaging the same compliance and legal driven controls that companies apply to other corporate records—meaning that IM communications are now securely and consistently captured into the corporate compliance program and managed according to centralized policies

  • Capture instant messages into a centralized repository

    Tamper-proof archiving enables companies to capture instant messages into a centralized, long-term compliance repository along with emails, documents, and other enterprise information.

    By integrating Open Text products (Open Text Records Management) and FaceTime IM Auditor, organizations can conduct structured retention and disposition management of all instant messaging communications, making it possible to decide how long messages are kept and when they are automatically destroyed.

With Open Text products and FaceTime IM Auditor, you can automate the process of ensuring that instant messages are stored on the appropriate storage media, in compliance with regulations.
