ImageGuard
Key Benefits
- Protection from Legal Liability Implementation of an image management system within a company’s network demonstrates that the company has met its duty of care to its employees.
In conjunction with an Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), the company can demonstrate that it employs best practice towards its employees and infrastructure. - Protect Valuable Brand Image A company’s brand image can be damaged by employee actions, which can ultimately affect the top and bottom line, with a significant number of high profile cases involving well known companies and their employ.
- Increased Productivity It has been shown that employees who are aware of image management systems quickly desist from sending pornographic material and move their activities outside of the corporate network. Less time spent sharing and sending files means more time spent on business, leading to increased productivity.
- Preserve and Manage Bandwidth Image files are, by nature, larger than text based office documents and hence consume more bandwidth and storage. ImageGuard dissuades employees from sending or storing inappropriate material therefore freeing up valuable network bandwidth.
- Preserve Email Archives Many organisation archive and store email using a service (such as SafeGuard) in order to achieve regulatory compliance. Unless filtered, any email containing an illicit image will be archived leaving a permanent record in the system.
- Protect Employees from Themselves Research has shown that it is often high profile, high salaried and important company employees who are likely to be transmitting and receiving inappropriate content. Dismissal or disciplining for network abuse can result in the potential loss of a highly valuable company asset.
- Management Control of Content In many companies network administrators will admit they do not have any idea what potentially damaging image content is flowing in and out, and residing on their network. ImageGuard is a powerful management tool which offers companies assistance in controlling and securing their data.
