Monitor & Enforce
Developing the AUP and educating employees is only the first step. The implementation system should also include how th.company will monitor and enforce their internal AUP. In an ideal world, simply telling an employee to not exercise
bad judgment might be enough. But employees can be mislead themselves and endanger a host network security system despite good intentions.
Whether .company chooses a hardware or software solution will affect how well they are able to monitor and enforce their AUP. Although the education of employees will assist in the enforcement of the AUP because the judicial system could find that a corporation has made a reasonable effort to keep their corporation free of hostility, harassment and other abusive behaviors, it will not be enough to keep your networks safe from outside intrusion, whether intentional or not
The AUP will reduce the vicarious liability that .company may endure but the vicarious liability factor is further protected when the written AUP is enforced through disciplinary actions and filtering solutions. A filtering solution can prevent employees from accessing sites, sof
A filter that not only enforces the AUP, but also monitors the behavior of the employees provides a double layer of protection. A powerful and effective filtering solution is the final piece of the puzzle to developing, maintaining and enforcing th.company AUP. "
