The legal aspects of corporate computer usage policies

Taylor, M; Haggerty, J; Gresty, D

Abstract

In this paper we examine the legal aspects of corporate computer usage policies including their creation, management, and their relevance to corporate computer forensic investigations. Misuse of corporate computing facilities cannot only lead to a reduction in employee productivity and network bandwidth, but can also increase the risk of infection
of such facilities by computer viruses and other malicious code. Moreover, it may lead to the risk of liability and legal action.
