This episode of the Technology Risk Podcast we dive into the ironic and alarming reality of employee monitoring tools becoming security threats themselves. What was meant to protect productivity and data is now exposing companies to privacy breaches, regulatory fines, and reputational fallout. We break down a real-world breach involving over 21 million leaked screenshots, unpack the hidden risks like overcollection and weak access controls, and explore the ethical dilemmas these tools raise. You’ll also hear best practices for secure, transparent monitoring—from strong encryption and access controls to building employee trust. If your company uses any form of monitoring software, this episode is a must-listen.
