What’s holding many organizations back are four core concerns:

* Productivity levels will decrease, due to employees spending time on social media Websites (given that it’s not part of their job).
* High-bandwidth Web 2.0 sites will overload the network, potentially blocking mission-critical applications and services.
* Employees will access pornographic material or other inappropriate Websites.
* Security and privacy issues will increase.

  • I believe the solution lies in an organization's ability to gain insight into user activity, applications, and potential threats and then use this knowledge to group users into different categories of access.
  • Only by helping to find out what’s needed and helping management to create policies around these requirements can IT ensure that network resources are available for business-critical applications and traffic spikes -- without compromising the quality of the network or the productivity of employees.
