‘Social Networking Risks’ Social media and social networking are some of the newest tools used to market products and services to the public. Sales and marketing professionals love these tools since they reach consumers with great efficiency and with tailored results.  Many organizations do not allow office employees to use social networking sites and instant messaging software. Take a position for or against these policies and provide a rationale for your response. What if the company implemented a “Bring your Own Device Plan,” (BYOD)—would this change your opinion? Should employees be allowed to access these sites if they are at work? Using the Internet, look for any resources that suggest safer ways to implement these services in the workplace. Provide links to the tools or tips that you find and share with your classmates. After reading a few of your classmates’ postings, reply to the ones from which you learned something new or to which you have something to add. Remember to get in early and post often.Additional post options: What types of attacks that can start with Social Media / Networking attacks are you most concerned with and what precautions do you take? Read some classmate posts and see if you think their precautions are sufficient. Be respectful in your posts if you disagree. Remember, we’re all learning together!
