Take Action on Social Media

Many of our firm's employees and consultants are Gen X and Gen Y'ers.  These employees use social media services for nearly all their communications.  Email is almost passe' for this group.

For most members of the CSO Breakfast Club, social media represents a clear security risk for a number of reasons. Social media sites have become a haven for malware insertion.  Additionally, users of social media services often post information that is considered sensitive.

In our upcoming breakfast series on this topic, our members and sponsors will collaborate to develop an approach that we should each be able to customize to meet our specific objectives as it pertains to social media use.  In specific, I am endorsing a 4-pronged approach that involves Policy, Awareness, Data Blocking, and Monitoring.

Take a look at my video introducing this topic and then make sure to register to attend one of the breakfasts in your city.
