A live Messaging News webinar with IBM and FaceTime
Date: Thursday, March, 11, 2010
Time: 7am PST / 10am EST / 3pm GMT
Corporate enterprises increasingly are realizing the benefits of multi-faceted unified communications capabilities from platforms such as IBM Lotus Sametime. UC-enabled enterprises can achieve enhanced flexibility, higher productivity and more effective communication both internally and externally.
However, the bridges built and barriers toppled by UC open the door to new risks as well, specifically the challenges of managing secure communications of mobile workforces using shared, Web-based resources and social networking features to engage with colleagues, partners and customers. New protection schemes and new thinking about application security are necessary to get the most out of the UC revolution.
Join Stephanie Jordan, Editor in Chief of Messaging News, Eric Young, Senior Director of FaceTime Communications, and Brian Aylward, World-Wide UC2 Sales Leader for IBM, for a 55-minute webinar on Thursday, March 11, at 7am PST / 10am EST / 3pm GMT to learn:
- Best practices and deployment issues to consider when rolling out Unified Communications,
- How Lotus Sametime extends the communications borders of the modern corporate enterprise, increases productivity, and drives down costs,
- Key security and compliance risks created as UC-enabled workforces begin to use new applications on the go,
- How to create a security management strategy for UC platforms like Sametime and for social media to prevent malware, loss of confidential information and meet compliance requirements, and
- How to address the long-term challenges of managing a UC environment.
In short, you will hear how your peers are achieving the benefits of Unified Communications and solving the many deployment challenges. In addition, you will learn what’s working in the field, and be able to get your top questions answered in this interactive Webinar.
