The Redmond, Wash., company said Tuesday that its Live Communications Server 2005 software will let companies encrypt their instant-messaging communications internally and link IM systems between companies so that suppliers and other business partners can share secure IM connections.
The standard edition of LCS will cost $750 per server. The enterprise edition, which includes more fail-safe options and the ability to cluster the software on many servers, will cost $3,000 per server. Microsoft will offer bulk discounts for both versions as well.
Additionally, Live Communications Server, or LCS, will include an option for letting companies link to public instant-messaging networks from Microsoft, America Online and Yahoo, so that employees can chat with users on the Big Three IM services.
