Abstract
We provide a survey on security features and threats to existing Instant Messaging (IM) networks and discuss how currently
available systems fail to provide adequate security in light of existing threats. Our discussion and analysis provide a starting point
from which to advance academic research in the area of secure IM systems, enabling security improvement in the longer term.
I. INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
Instant Messaging (IM) is a type of communications service over the Internet that enables individuals to exchange text
messages and track availability of a list of users in real-time. IM systems have been around since the UNIX applications talk
and write. IM usage increased with the early implementations of the MIT Project Athena Zephyr notification system [1], and
IRC (started at University of Oulu in Finland; RFC1459 [2], RFC2810 [3]). However, the increasing popularity of consumer
IM services in the recent past is phenomenal. Giga Information Group, a market research firm, estimates that about 325 million
people worldwide will use consumer IM applications in the year 2003 [4]. Starting as a casual application, mainly used by
teenagers and college students, IM systems now connect even naval operations (over 300 US Navy warships are connected via
IM service) to various customer services [5].
There are many free public domain instant messaging services. The most popular are AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), ICQ,
MSN Messenger (Windows Messenger in XP), and Yahoo! Instant Messenger (YIM). This paper focuses on these messaging
networks and their default clients.

There are also many other third-party clients that interact on these networks. We discuss
both the third party and default
