Social Networks a Security Risk for Organizations
September 3, 2009
I think this is one of those “this is obvious” studies consulting and research firms generate during the dog days of summer. Based on my experience,any device that sends info outside of an organization is a security risk. I know the confident, chubby 20 somethings insist that I am wrong. Well, I am a confident, chubby 65 year old something, and I know that these gizmos are fraught with risk. If you want to read a consulting firm’s take on this matter, read “Social Networks Pose Security Risks for Enterprises”. The write up references an IDC study that seems to me to state the obvious.
