Abstract: The study focuses on informing the readers about the dangers that can occur when using social media in their work place, educating users on data security and easing the process of transmitting information for the purpose of improving organization at work and the proper functioning. The paper relates to the concept of social media as a friendly yet somewhat dangerous environment, specifically when talking about businesses. The research was based on similar books and articles which share this view on the matter. The main method employed was case study. Ensuring users that even though using these communication methods, the transmission of information between employees is much easier and more efficient, the problems that may arise exceed or not the benefits listed above. The article highlights some useful insight into the usage of social media as an asset that any business has access to.
