Our Solutions > Secure Messaging > Social Networking

Social Networking

The speed at which organisations could work stepped up several gears at the advent of email. Today, email is only one member of a far larger family of online communication tools. Facebook, web conferencing and blogs all started out as the playthings of consumers, but now are acknowledged as bona fide corporate channels. They allow business-to-business, business-to-consumer, and employee-to-employee communications to take place any time, any place, anywhere.

All of this blogging, posting and IM-ing means that an unimaginable quantity of data is changing hands every day. Indeed, 400 million people use Facebook – with 35 million updating their status everyday. 5 billion pieces of information are shared each week through status updates and 3.5 million events are created on this, the most popular social network.

This increase in global collaboration between social and business networks means many more opportunities exist for business assets and intellectual property to leave the safety of the corporate environment, and many more opportunities for unauthorised and unethical entities to gain access.

Left unsecured and unmanaged, widespread use of Web 2.0 applications and social networking can:

• Create holes for information leakage, resulting in the loss of confidential information
• Expose organisations to legal liabilities and financial penalties from compliance breaches
• Compromise network security from malware spread through real-time channels
• Increase help desk calls and support costs
• Cause network bandwidth overload with file sharing
