Email Smart Tip #65: Beware of hidden readers

This week’s tip comes courtesy of Nancy Flynn, founder of the ePolicy Institute and it concerns the security of email.

The reality is – email is not secure. Your intention may be to send your email to one person but an inaccurate keystroke or the recipient’s decision to forward your email could result in your email being seen and read by many unintended recipients.

So, never use email to communicate proprietary information or any information that could damage your company or employees if was read by hidden readers.

Keep it safe . . . .
