FaceTime is the leading provider of security solutions for the management and control of greynet applications. Greynet applications are downloaded and installed on end user systems without expressed permission from or awareness by IT, and then use evasive encryption and port agility techniques to traverse the network. Greynet applications include instant messaging, P2P file sharing, Skype, web conferencing, and adware/spyware.

Effective management of greynets helps to prevent spyware infection, block P2P, and manage the legitimate use of IM. FaceTime helps companies protect their networks against threats that propagate through greynet applications, prevent loss of confidential information and customer data, as well as manage instant messaging to meet corporate and regulatory compliance requirements. FaceTime solutions work with all public and enterprise IM clients to offer:

• Authentication of user identities and ability to block high-risk features
• Network protection with anti-virus and anti-spIM controls
• Content scanning to prevent disclosure of proprietary information
• Complete logging, auditing and archiving of IM
• Prevention of unauthorized IM and P2P connections
• Spyware prevention at the Internet gateway with targeted remediation
