The most successful businesses are using social media to gain an advantage over their competitors. But do they fully understand the risks?

In this webinar we will explore how internal audit professionals with insight can partner with the business to help ensure the pitfalls related to social media are identified and avoided.

We will discuss information on such areas as monitoring and listening to the social media conversation, protecting the organization’s brand on social media, developing effective and compliant social media policies, and decommissioning social media accounts.

We also give you advice for how to get started with your first audit of social media and some of the risks organizations face.
