IT Pays The Price For Your Fun At Work

A new survey says that IT managers pay the price for all your personal e-mail, Facebook checking and overall unsafe surfing habits at work. Don’t try denying it, you know what you do at work…you ought to at least get the IT guys something for Christmas as a way of saying “sorry about the virus I got from that porn site.”

Security specialist FaceTime Communications commissioned a survey of nearly 530 IT managers and end users to find out exactly how people are using the Internet at work and what impact those activities have on their IT departments. Ninety-seven percent of end users surveyed reported using one or more Internet applications at work, up from 85 percent last year, and 82 percent say they use Web conferencing, according to the survey due to be released on Monday.
