Over the past
few years, providing employees with access to the Internet has become
a critical factor in the success of most corporations and other
large organisations in the United States and around the globe.
Many companies
have openly embraced the widespread use of the World Wide Web, Internet
e-mail, and file transfer mechanisms as highly efficient communications
and research tools to boost employee productivity.
In addition,
a rapidly growing number of organisations are also instituting private
intranet's and extranet's to enhance their employees’ internal
communications and to streamline interaction with external customers
and partners.
Each day more
employers are granting their employees’ access to the Internet
in order to take advantage
of the wide range of readily available information and to improve
the overall
efficiency of their internal and external operations.
However, too
many organisa tions have also discovered the hard way that unrestricted
and
unmanaged Internet access by employees can lead to dire consequences
in the form of wasted time, lost productivity, misappropriation
of resources, reduced morale, and the risk of diminished corporate
reputation. Perhaps more importantly, an organisation’s failure
to take adequate steps to define, manage and control employees’
Internet usage can also lead to severe risks in the form of potential
legal and financial liabilities.
The need to
protect against these risks has given rise to a whole new wave of
significant
management efforts involving corporate executives, IT managers,
human resource staff and the legal community. Although the need
for comprehensive and enforceable Internet Acceptable Use Policies
(IAUP) has now become a critical issue cutting across organisations
in virtually all industry segments, all too often the IAUP policy
efforts or technological implementation for policy enforcement fall
short of the mark.
