Why is Information Leaking Continuously from "BeReal"? The Mechanism of Young Employees Unconsciously Exposing Information and 3 Countermeasures Companies Should Take
"I only meant to show it to close friends."
We are in an era where such casual SNS posts by young employees can instantly damage a company's brand.
From April to May 2026, a series of information leakage incidents by new employees on SNS occurred, becoming major news. A common thread among these incidents was the use of Instagram's "Close Friends" feature and "BeReal," which has rapidly spread among young people.
In the past, "part-time job terror" incidents, mainly by part-time workers, were primarily extreme actions to gain attention. However, many current incidents, sometimes referred to as "full-time employee terror," are posts of "everyday scenes" without malicious intent. Why do young employees unconsciously expose confidential information and take risks that threaten their careers?
This seminar will thoroughly analyze the latest leakage cases, shedding light on the SNS usage psychology unique to Generation Z and the structural risks inherent in "BeReal" that companies and personnel should be aware of. Furthermore, experts will discuss three necessary countermeasures for companies.
