All organizations that provide Internet access to their employees must put an Internet Acceptable Use and Filtering Policy in place. Some policies have been in place, unchanged, for several years.
This template covers areas such as:
- Appropriate use
- Inappropriate use
- Security
- Monitoring and filtering
With the major expansion of Internet capabilities and usage, enterprises should review their policies to ensure that they reflect today's challenges and organizational expectations, and to ensure that employees understand what types of websites are allowed and disallowed depending on their department or role.
