• Kaspersky’s latest report reveals that 4 percent of employees at 50 banks use their email to register on adult content websites.
  • This is part of a wider trend where 7 percent of compromised data stolen between 2019 and 2024 contained corporate email addresses.
  • Combined with poor password security, this could lead to corporate email addresses being compromised.

    part of my ‘new employee’ schtick is "your email account does not belong to you. we let you use it on our behalf. make no mistake,it belongs to the company an will be analyzed as such.’

      I feel the same way about company phones. I know a lot of people who cancelled their personal phone when the company issued them one. I resigned myself to carrying two phones. And it’s not like a have some sort of clandestine life, I just want my personal life separate from my company life.

        Better to setup a softphone and have the company pay x% of the users bill.

        If the user cannot afford a phone or their phone dies, then issue one.

        The only person who loses with two phones is the poor person carrying/charging/using 2 phones

        Also, after hours/on vacation the work phone just sits on my desk accumulating missed messages, which is harder to do if it’s your only phone.

          Yes! I always took my work phone with me on vacation, but I left it in the hotel and would just check it in the evenings. That was a big driver - I want my family to be able to reach me any time, but not everyone at work. My admin and my boss had my personal number, but they only used it in emergencies.
