Social networking security landscape — the good, the bad and the ugly

Overview

There is no denying that the social Web is the new Web. Nearly every enterprise is using it in one way or
another. But along with its enormous popularity come enterprise-size risks. So in the race to maximise its
potential, enterprises must take due care to completely protect the business. Unfortunately, most aren't yet
prepared to do that, lacking the proper controls to effectively enforce acceptable use policy, prevent new
forms of malware, and protect sensitive data.

This paper delves into the social networking security landscape - the good, the bad and the ugly - and
offers practical guidance toward harnessing the power of the social Web to help businesses benefit from it.
