Keeping organisations safe from user gadgets

Following on from my blog thought piece, the Intranet Imperative, and also some of the implementation issues I raised in my recent social software presentations this CSOonline.com article outlines some of the information security issues that some of the lastest technology "gadgets" present to organisations.

Its looks at the risks created by camera phones, USB thumb drives, P2P and other Web-based services.

However one person reminds us to keep everything in perspective and says "the technology is neutral. It's not good or bad. It can be used in novel ways. But if we survived e-mail, we'll survive this evolutionary process too."
