A company's technology team has noticed that employees are using company email accounts to sign up for personal streaming services, resulting in spam and phishing attacks. What should be implemented to prevent this behavior?
Conducting additional training sessions on cybersecurity
An Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) clearly outlines acceptable and unacceptable actions when using company resources, including email accounts. An AUP would specify that employees should use their company email only for work-related purposes, thus preventing misuse for personal activities that could compromise security. While monitoring helps identify misuse, it does not prevent it, training is supportive but not binding, and software solutions may be part of the strategy, they aren't substitutional for policy.
