JDH Technologies responds to business needs by including advanced security 
support in the Web-4M groupware, collaboration, sales and training environment. 

Web-4M is a multi-platform Intranet and Extranet collaboration, conferencing, and

the Browseable Document Library(tm), the Interactive Slide Show(tm), audiovisual 
conferencing, chat, decision support, whiteboard, calendar, scheduler and more into 
a simple point and click interface.

Web-4M version 2.7 protects sensitive communications with both a secure SSL 
support option web server for web pages and Web-4Ms 128-bit encrypted links 
to secure all communications including email, news, file transfers and real-time 
room-based conferencing. These new security features create a "bullet-proof" 
environment including Web-4M's doubly encrypted user authentication and digital 
signatures. Your proprietary business interests are secure with Web-4M. 

More new features in Web-4M 2.7:

 	- HTML image grabber for sharing graphics
 	- Enhanced calendaring
 	- Document, Room, and News access control for partitioning multiple 
	  private virtual servers

Web-4M has been fully tested with the leading Linux distributions.  Addressing the 
reality of todays workplace, Web-4M also works with Unix, Windows 95/98/2000/NT, 
Mac OS and thin-client systems such as Sun Microsystems SunRay. Web-4M is ideal 
for mixed platform workplaces.

Web-4M is easy to install and maintain.  Web-4Ms fully integrated environment means 
users begin meetings with simple points and clicks without the worry of software installation, 
setup and maintenance or, very important, locating participants.  Everyone you want comes 
to your server.  All others are locked out. 

Server-side configuration and storage allow for roaming access making it easy to safely 
communicate and share information whether you are in the office, on the road, or 
telecommuting from home. Web-4M is ideal for todays wired business world.
