Chako: I heard that internal information from companies has been leaking on social media lately! I wonder how that happens?
Log: Yeah, it’s definitely a problem. It seems like more and more employees are letting their guard down and posting internal footage and information on social media.
Chako: Wow, I can’t believe that! Why would they do something like that?
Navi: I think the leaks are partly due to a sense of complacency, as employees believe they’re only sharing with their close circle. The nature of the apps might also play a role.
Log: That’s true. Especially with apps like “BeReal,” which require immediacy, you really have to be careful.
Chako: It really shows how important employee training is!

Admin’s Note

The news about the increasing leakage of information on social media is a very important issue for both companies and individuals. In particular, the fact that content on social media can disappear in 24 hours may create a sense of complacency. As Chako mentioned, it’s essential to thoroughly educate employees, and companies should also strengthen their risk management. This might be a good opportunity to reassess how we handle information.
