Acceptable Use
Define responsible use of systems, accounts, data, and shared resources.
Policy intent
Acceptable Use should express a rule people can follow under pressure: what is expected, what is prohibited, who can approve exceptions, and what evidence is required.
Minimum content
- Define who and what the policy covers, including systems, data, tools, users, vendors, and exceptions.
- Purpose, scope, and covered parties.
- Required behavior and prohibited behavior.
- Approval, exception, and review path.
- Evidence or recordkeeping expectation.
Expected output
A policy page that states expectations clearly enough to guide approval, exception, and review decisions.
Common failure mode
Keeping the document as a form instead of using it to make decisions visible.
Use notes
| Authority | Identify who can approve, deny, and grant exceptions. |
|---|---|
| Exception handling | Give exceptions an owner, reason, expiration, and review date. |
| Review point | Review when law, tools, contracts, ownership, or operational risk changes. |
