Uncontrolled Social Networking Attracts Malware

Social networking is at an all time high, with no end in sight. Social networking can be a good thing, as a utility to spread brand awareness. It can also bring down your entire network if left unchecked. Protection is the key, but education and training is a very strong weapon against malware intrusion. Social sites including Twitter, FaceBook, MySpace, and others can easily open the doors to cyber crime. There are many stories of hijackings, the inability to control content put in the Internet mainstream by others, the incomprehension to follow policies in the area of record keeping, and other doors that permit security breaches.

Another problem is employees that use their own laptops, mobile phones attached to work wireless systems, and other devices that may be less than desirable in terms of complete security. As organizations educate and train employees to practice better access and use of employer resources as well as manage risk. As employee behavior improves with training, it also minimizes the threat of intrusion. Social networking is build on many levels of trust. Friends you link to, friends of friends who indirectly link to you. Soon, you have no idea if the person you correspond to is a trusted individual, or a cyber criminal.
