Here's something that I think may be of general interest. Our information security officer sent the following to my manager: "The content Frank is positing does not appear to be specific to our environment. However, I am concern by the fact he posts his position, where he works, and phone number. This creates some social engineering risk, as well as discloses information about the operating systems we use. Who can I talk with to ask Frank to remove information related to where he works on this conversation thread and future ones?"
Are these concerns justified or just paranoia? I like posting this information because I've received useful contacts and information based on it. I'm curious what policies other businesses have.
