Resource Community Acceptable Use Policy Free Use Disclaimer: This policy was created by or for the SANS Institute for the Internet community. All or parts of this policy can be freely used for your organization. There is no prior approval required. If you would like to contribute a new policy or updated version of this policy, please send email to policy-resources@sans.org. Last Update Status: Updated June 2014

1. Overview Infosecs intentions for publishing an Acceptable Use Policy are not to impose restrictions that are contrary to neaPays established culture of openness, trust and integrity. Infosec is committed to protecting neaPay's employees, partners and the company from illegal or damaging actions by individuals, either knowingly or unknowingly. Internet/Intranet/Extranet-related systems, including but not limited to computer equipment, software, operating systems, storage media, network accounts providing electronic mail, WWW browsing, and FTP, are the property of neaPay. These systems are to be used for business purposes in serving the interests of the company, and of our clients and customers in the course of normal operations. Please review Human Resources policies for further details. Effective security is a team effort involving the participation and support of every neaPay employee and affiliate who deals with information and/or information systems. It is the responsibility of every computer user to know these guidelines, and to conduct their activities accordingly.

2. Purpose The purpose of this policy is to outline the acceptable use of computer equipment at neaPay. These rules are in place to protect the employee and neaPay. Inappropriate use exposes neaPay to risks including virus attacks, compromise of network systems and services, and legal issues.

3. Scope This policy applies to the use of information, electronic and computing devices, and network resources to conduct neaPay business or interact with internal networks and business systems, whether owned or leased by neaPay, the employee, or a third party. All employees, contractors, consultants, temporary, and other workers at neaPay and its subsidiaries are responsible for exercising good judgment regarding appropriate use of information, electronic devices, and network resources in accordance with neaPay policies and standards, and local laws and regulation. Exceptions to this policy are documented in section 5.2 This policy applies to employees, contractors, consultants, temporaries, and other workers at neaPay, including all personnel affiliated with third parties. This policy applies to all equipment that is owned or leased by neaPay.
