Survey: Chat and IM

[tony toni]

Hi,

We currently are allowing web based chat and instant messaging. I know that there are lots of security issues involved with its usage. The IT folks are telling me that it is a common practice in the industry. I have a hard time believing this and this is one battle I would like to take on.

QUESTION: DOES YOUR COMPANY ALLOW WEB BASED CHAT AND INSTANT MESSAGING? If this was a battle you fought, could you please give me some ideas on how you won the battle. Any good articles/white papers that could support my position?
