Secure Use of Social Media in the Federal Government Workshop: A User and Manager Perspective
Social Media tools provide a crucial set of tools in creating a more transparent, participatory and collaborative government but their use poses a unique security challenge. By their nature, social media tools open a new set of cybersecurity risks as pointed out in the recent CIO council paper “Guidelines for Secure Use of Social Media by Federal Departments and Agencies”. We use that paper as a guide to create a workshop on how to address security concerns posed by the use of social media tools. |
