Abstract
Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer-readable storage media for providing access to an online social network. The online social network can be specific to an organization having one or more internal users. In some implementations, a request message is received from a requesting user to access social network data of the online social network. The requesting user is identified as an external user of the organization, and it is determined that the requesting user has an authorized status. Access to only a portion of the social network data is provided to the authorized requesting user.
