“The social networking boom shows no sign of stopping and businesses can no longer hide their heads in the sand. Social networking sites are now a vital part of many marketing and sales strategies. Therefore, they cannot be blocked—but they cannot be allowed to drain company resources or used as vectors for data loss or malware penetration.”
