During a company orientation, the presenter is explaining the dos and don'ts regarding company equipment and network use. Which policy would most likely be enforced through the guidelines presented in the AUP?
Requiring specific attire while using company-owned devices
Mandating punctuality for login times on the network
Prohibiting the installation of any programs without clearance from the appropriate department
Adhering to confidentiality when accessing files on the network
An AUP typically includes prohibitions on introducing unauthorized programs to the company's systems, because such actions can lead to security vulnerabilities and potential breaches. An AUP is designed to outline the responsibilities of users regarding the use of organizational resources to ensure they are used safely and appropriately. Policies about user attire and schedule adherence do not pertain to equipment and network usage and are not usually included in an AUP. Confidentiality is crucial, but a statement this broad could be relevant to various policies beyond the AUP; it is important, but the best answer would be specific to use of technology resources.
