Five Facts About ApplicationUsage on Enterprise Networks

in Korea

Application Usage and Risk Report December 2011

Average number of social networking applications per organization?

17

Average number of social networking applications per organization?

A total of 57 different social networking applications were found in 96% of the 35 participating organizations with an

average of 20 found on each network.

20

Which application is used more heavily?

Based on the percentage of social networking bandwidth consumed, DAUM consumed 78% of the bandwidth.

Twitter and Facebook 1% each respectively.

Local social networking dominate - while Facebook and twitter struggle. Both DAUM and Cyworld are used more

heavily than Twitter or Facebook

Average number of browser-based filesharing applications per organization?

organizations with an average of 18 in each.

18

Browser-based filesharing use cases: work or entertainment. Both uses have a common set of business

and security risks that organizations must address.

The number of applications using Port 80 (tcp/80) only?

The number of applications that ONLY use Port 80 is 188 or 27% of the 707 applications found in the participating

organizations.

188

Percentage of total bandwidth consumed by applications not using tcp/80?

20% of the total bandwidth is being consumed by 214 (30% of 707) applications that DO NOT USE port 80 at all. Ever.

20%

Port 80 only security is shortsighted. The common perception is that Port 80 (tcp/80) is where all the traffic and all

the problems are. A port 80 emphasis is an absolute requirement; but too much focus is shortsighted.
