GARTNER: COMPANIES SHOULDN'T BOTHER BANNING FACEBOOK, SOCIAL

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. -- According to a Gartner Inc. social media security expert, banning Facebook, and other social networking services like LinkedIn and Twitter, is an exercise in futility. To
boot, securing social media in the enterprise is not a responsibilitythat should fall to information security teams.
Tuesday at Gartner's Security and Risk Management Summit, research director Andrew Walls told attendees that although infosec pros may worry that social networking will lead to uncontrolled malware
outbreaks, phishing, breaches of confidentiality and trade secrets, and even damage to the corporate reputation, trying to take control of, or even block its use is akin to monitoring employees' home phone
calls and rifling through their postal mail.
