Employee e-mail puts business at risk |
 |
November 16, 2005
 Are your colleagues putting your company at risk with loosey goosey e-mail use?
A new study says yes, noting that almost 70% of employees surveyed have sent or received e-mail that could pose a risk to business.
For example:
- 61% admit they have used email at work for personal use.
- 48% say they have sent or received joke e-mails, funny pictures/movies, funny stories of a questionable tone.
- 22% say they have sent or received a password or log-in information via e-mail.
- 73% are aware of corporate e-mail policies, but only 46% say they alway adhere to the policy.
- 9% have used company email to submit their resume to another company.
- 22% have sent personal details to HR including Social Security numbers, salary details, or medical information via e-mail.
The study was - not surprisingly - funded by e-mail archiving vendor Fortiva.
