The great success at the olympics for the GB team has hit the bandwidth for business-to-business applications as employees surf the internet to find the latest results and news says ScanSafe.
The number of visits to Olympic news sites increased by as much as 8 times as Britain became more successful at the games.
Those companies that did not block access to employees looking at Olympic news could not have anticipated the great success of the team. On average employees were spending 16 minutes a day checking updates about the olympic games. Businesses networks were a lot slower as employees kept up-to-date with all of the action. In turn this swallowed up a great deal of bandwidth leading to the problems. Businesses will be pleased that the games are all over and that the event only happens every 4 years.
