Dangers of twitter

1)Twitter is rapidly becoming a serious threat to corporate information protection. 

 20 people are in a confidential meeting, one of them using Twitter. This attendee broadcasts an off-hand “tweet”  to his or her “followers”. With traditional  messaging, that message would be received by one or two others. With Twitter, that comment may be seen by 10, 100, 1000, or more followers.

 Twitter has the power to turn groups of innocent bystanders into instant analysts. Even seemingly innocuous comments, when put before a large group of people, can be analyzed more rapidly, and in more depth, than you might expect. This can easily cause ranges of unintended, highly negative, consequences.

2)Computer virus' in the form of email are sent to targeted audiences because the senders know that a large number of people will open an email that has a familiar subject line and a familiar friend 's name. Are you prepared to protect your system from attacks that come in that form?

Most email virus infections happen when we open a letter from a "familiar" source.

Your Facebook postings and quizes fuel those you do not know with information you wouldn't want stangers to have. If you look up a name, any name, you get a huge amount of info. Searches show data. Think before you post or Tweet. Think of it as showering in public.

3)

Fake twitter profiles have been used to spread malicious software (known as malware).  Many times, scammers use fake celebrity profiles or fake news about celebrities to lure you in.

These profiles and tweets look legit, but are created to infect your computer with malware that lets the scammer use your computer to send spam, install spyware, steal your identity or launch attacks on other computers.
