How to Approach Access Control in the Social Networking Age

How to Approach Access Control in the Social Networking AgeLike instant messaging and e-mail before it, social networking can cause worries to companies that haven’t learned to adapt – and real trouble to companies that haven’t learned how to manage it.
Enterprises are beginning to adopt social networking applications. They’re doing it for the same reasons millions of consumers do: because they offer a fast, easy-to-use way to keep in touch, organize activities and share ideas.
However, businesses and IT executives are wary, and for good reason. Whether they like it or not, employees are signing up for these tools regardless of whether it’s company policy or not. Younger employees joining the work force have grown up with social networking technologies, and businesses are being forced to play catch-up.
