Seven Highly Successful Habits of Enterprise Email Managers: Ensuring that your employees' email usage is not putting your company at risk

Abstract

Abstract The rise of regulatory oversight and privacy concerns, the exponential growth in the amount of email, the lack of email discipline by employees, and the ubiquity of email as a primary communications mechanism have created new risks for companies and businesses of every size. It is not only the disgruntled worker you should be worried about—it is likely your star performers who are unknowingly placing your company at risk while just trying to do their jobs. They are emailing data to their personal accounts and/or to customers or partners, all in the clear and often without anyone knowing until it is too late to stop the security or ethical breach.
