POL0329—Acceptable Use Policy

Ensure Safe and Responsible Technology Use with the Acceptable Use Policy

In today’s fast-paced business environment, the effective use of technology drives productivity and innovation. However, without clear boundaries, the improper use of computer equipment can expose your organisation to serious risks. These risks include data breaches, legal liabilities, and the loss of sensitive information. The Acceptable Use Policy equips your organisation with comprehensive guidelines to safeguard employees, protect company systems, and maintain a secure, professional environment.

By proactively implementing these guidelines, your organisation significantly reduces threats such as virus infections, network vulnerabilities, and breaches of confidentiality.
