SecureMySocial Unveils Automatic Deletion Technology for Problematic Social Media Posts: Offers Unparalleled Protection for Businesses and their Employees

SecureMySocial Unveils Automatic Deletion Technology for Problematic Social Media Posts
Offers Unparalleled Protection for Businesses and their Employees

SecureMySocial announced today the availability of its new auto-deletion technology for problematic social media posts. Now available for Twitter, the service allows people and businesses to configure SecureMySocial to automatically, in real time, delete Tweets as they are made, if the posts are deemed likely to violate laws, harm the poster’s career or personal relationships, put the poster or his/her children in physical danger, bully others, leak confidential data, or inflict harm in other ways.

Reports of inappropriate social media posts causing all sorts of professional and personal problems appear in the media nearly every day. Bad posts by employees – and disciplinary actions taken as a result – have caused businesses to be sued, investigated, and fined, and have cost fortunes as leaked data has undermined investment in marketing campaigns and research projects.

“With SecureMySocial’s patent-pending Auto-Deletion technology, businesses can protect themselves and their employees from risks that were previously not addressable. People using personal social media accounts during non-work hours could inadvertently harm their employers or themselves. With SecureMySocial that risk is dramatically reduced,” noted Joseph Steinberg, CEO of SecureMySocial.

Inc.: How Your Business Can Stay Cyber-Secure Without Spending a Fortune

How Your Business Can Stay Cyber-Secure Without Spending a Fortune

"Inappropriate social media posts can cause many problems – such as leaking sensitive information, violating compliance rules, and assisting criminals to carry out attacks. Implement technology to ensure social media does not become a nightmare (of course, I recommend SecureMySocial); do not rely on simply telling people not to make particular types of posts on Facebook or Twitter – history tells us that many people simply do not realize when they are making such posts, and even those who do, may inadvertently leak data when posting from a smartphone that auto-corrects a misspelled word to a sensitive, internal term."

Entrepreneur: 4 Essentials to Secure Your Business Even From State-Sponsored Online Threats

This article discusses various threats to businesses and includes the following quote from Joseph Steinberg, CEO of SecureMySocial:

“People forget that employees can leak data from home or mobile devices. This has become a dramatically larger problem since the dawn of social media and the entrance into the workforce of a generation of people who grew up oversharing on social media. Technology implemented at the perimeter of an organization does not do anything to prevent these types of leaks, so standard data leak prevention (DLP) solutions are often insufficient.”
