There were over 1.2 million Twitter users in December and the numbers of users are growing exponentially.
Given these numbers, most organizations have employees who are Twittering, or will be soon.
Most likely, given the nature and use of Twitter, such activities are occurring while at work.
Have you addressed Twitter, and other types of micro-blogging, within your messaging policies and procedures? Do so before you find your company’s sensitive information, or customers’ personally identifiable information, Twittered away into the public ethernet.
