A newly hired employee is in orientation and requires guidance on the organization's expectations for using digital assets and communication networks. Which document should be provided to communicate the rules of behavior and the potential sanctions for violations?
The Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) is the correct document. An AUP outlines the rules and acceptable behaviors for employees using an organization's digital assets, networks, and internet access, and it specifies the consequences for non-compliance. A Business Continuity Plan (BCP) details how an organization will maintain critical functions during a major disruption, not individual user rules. An Incident Response Plan (IRP) is a technical document with instructions for responding to and managing a security breach. A Service Level Agreement (SLA) defines the level of service expected from a vendor and is not focused on internal employee conduct.
