WorkBook

edit

WorkBook is a secure enterprise overlay for Facebook, allowing employees to securely interact with their peers using the hugely-popular social networking service.

WorkBook combines all the capabilities of Facebook with all the controls of a corporate environment, including integration with existing enterprise security services and information sources.

With WorkBook, employees can find and stay in touch with colleagues, publish company-related news, create bookmarks to enterprise application data and securely share the bookmarks with authorized colleagues, update professional status change and get general company news.

Employees can freely use Facebook, with the WorkBook overlay, with no danger of information leaking outside the organization or access being granted to unauthorized personnel.

The following represent some sample uses of WorkBook in the enterprise:

• Francesca interacts securely with colleagues at remote offices, taking advantage of Facebook’s social networking tools (e.g. send birthday greetings, share your status, send requests, etc.)

• Marisa, a civil engineer based in London, uses Facebook/WorkBook to find corporate colleagues in Asia and North America who have already solved a structural challenge she has just been assigned.

• Joe, a field rep in Omaha, posts a link to an interesting article from the Wall Street Journal, so that his peers in other regions can use the information in sales presentations.

• Rajiv, an Accounts Receivables manager, shares an unpaid invoice record with the appropriate sales manager.

• Deborah changes her work-related to status to “working on next year’s budget”

• Corporate management announces a recent large deal to all employees and posts a new HR policy to European employees.
