Staying Safe with Social Media
http://www.crn.com.au/News/153507,opinion-protect-your-cyber-self.aspx
The CRN website has published a good article about the inportance of “staying safe” when utilising online social media. This is an important discussion, not simply relevant to “younger” generations, but also business professionals.
The article gives a great example of how corporate information of a sensitive nature can be so easily leaked through vehicles like Twitter or Facebook.
It also highlights the damage that can be done in “banning” access to these sites, and the limit it would put on marketing visibility. These are all fair points, and perhaps its going to take us a bit of time to adjust…but we’ll get there, eventually.
