Leverage Access Controls and Policies to Secure Employees' Internet Usage

Overview Adopting a formal Internet Acceptable Use Policy (IAUP) is a critical first step in policing your employees' Internet usage, but writing a sound policy is only half the battle against the security breaches and lost productivity that can result from unrestricted Web browsing.
