Editor's Notes
- #12: Last year Protector built an ICAP interface for integration with any product that supports ICAP like Portal & Connections to support virus scanning on files – Q3 Worked with IBM CIO to do full content inspection of anything that Connections, Quickr & Portal. Pre-content posted. User session connected to Connections / Quickr – traffic proxy over to protector RegEX's, custom keywords, SPAM keywords for blog/wiki spam Runs on a separate server Focus on filtering where actiance is more business controls logic
- #25: Allow LDAP groups to join Communities Keep LDAP group in sync with Community access
