Guys,
We started the thread to know the folks who are in CTS so that we have meets within us and see if we can organise some rides etc. Please dont spam the thread.

Cheers!

This thread is going to serve another purpose : When your IT Admin finds this thread, he will add Team-BHP to the banned list on your office firewall.

I am not sure whether CTS is BS7799 or ISO27001 certified or not, but I am sure while in the next IS(information Security) Audit, they are definitely going to check the websence or Internet firewall logs and may take some serious action against the employees. Relax Guys I don't want to scare any one here, but this is the fact. I am in the ISO(Info sec officer) for my company and we do check each and every log. We have taken action against some associates, who had violated the IS rule. Just sharing the Employee ID in a public Forum is a Security Violation.

So request you all Guys, pls do PM to the concerned, to make a database. By the way sharing the cell phone number(whether personal or official) in public forum is a security threat too.

Can the IT-admin come to know of the sites visited by each employee?

AFAIK in my company this is not possible. The firewall blocks access to sensitive sites which sometimes are real silly.

Not only CTS, this can happen with any organization. Not sure about the organizations, who dont care about their Info Sec policy.

Yes Vid its possible. When I was handling systems and network in my company I used to analyse network load using Ntop -- Welcome to ntop.org and then block sites that are frequently visited or carry lot of bandwidth on the firewall itself. An IT admin can track anything and everything he wants to in his domain and access levels.
