E-Policy: How to Develop Computer, E-Policy, and Internet Guidelines to Protect Your Company and Its Assets

With clear, legally sound policies any company can reduce, even eliminate the dangers posed by computer/e-mail use, protect their interests - and reap the rewards of these technologies without any of the risks. e-policy is the first book written to help you do just that. A one-stop computer/e-mail policy writing kit, it examines the potentially astronomical costs of e-mail and Internet misuse, and gives you step-by-step guidelines for creating up-to-date, legally sound policies that explicitly define the rights and obligations of employees. e-policy is packed with background information, detailed instructions, sample clauses, prewritten policies you can put to immediate use, and real-life horror stories that emphasize how explosive these problems really can be - and how crucial the solution it provides is.
