Belgium's state security is concerned about their employees allegedly sharing job details via social network profiles. Several people claim to be working for the security services of the country, which is indicated on their LinkedIn and Facebook.

Those anxious to find some alleged Belgian spies may do so by searching for "Staatsveiligheid" / "Sûreté de l'état" and "OCAM" in LinkedIn or Facebook. The former translates as the Belgian State Security Agency, the latter stands for Belgium's Coordinating Body for Threat Analysis.
