Laflecha shows a list to us of 8 dangerous technologies of consumption, among them:

1. Instantaneous mail
   This is a serious risk for the security, because not only it is one of the main entrances of malware, also allows that sensible data of a company could be sent by unsafe networks to any part of the world.
2. Mail Web
   The problem is that the users forget that this type of service is basically not secure and it would not have to be used to send sensible information.
3. Portable devices of storage
   Not only they can be used to extract deprived information of the companies, but for the entrance of malware.
4. PDAs and SmartPhones
   Often, when they try to synchronize the calendar of its device or application of electronic mail with its own personal computer, they can cause technical failures, even blue screens, with implicit risks to the security and productivity.
5. Camera in moving bodies
   This it is a big problem. Even when someone takes an innocent photo, the same one can reveal internal data to people who must not have them.
6. Skype and other VoIP services
   Here the danger is people who download programs from Internet in the computer of corporative use. This software can interact with other applications potentially, affecting the general performance, and so the security could be easily exploited when users update their software.
