Senior management has asked us to provide a comprehensive acceptable use (AUP) policy.

Building on the Internet and email use policy you created for Richman Investments previously, define a LAN-to-WAN, Internet, and web surfing AUP that restricts usage of the companys Internet connection and permits the company to monitor usage of the corporate Internet connection.

Keep in mind that Richman requires the enforcement of strict ingress-egress filtering policies for network traffic.Certain traffic is expressly forbidden.

While creating the policy, carefully evaluate the implications of the policy and how implementations might impact the IT infrastructure, both positively and negatively. Weigh the benefits and the disadvantages of each method. Consider whether or not a proposed solution causes an interruption to legitimate users and how it might enhance security at the expense of preventing a perfectly legitimate activity.
