to define acceptable employee behavior when accessing company resources.
Additionally, there are also legal implications within AUPs. Use an existing

1. Describe the purpose of an Acceptable Use Policy you have selected and
explain how the AUP helps provide confidentiality, integrity, and availability
within the organization.
2. Critique the AUP you selected and provide recommendations for improving the
AUP.
3. Explain methods that organizations can implement to help ensure compliance
with the AUP, mitigate their risk exposure, and minimize liability. Describe
how your selected AUP accomplishes these goals.
