Question

%) Provided that your organization has an Email and Internet use policy covering "Code of Conduct" on using computer assets during working hours. What should you do in the following situations if you are an IT security professional in the company: a. Your colleague Linda received several emails from another colleague Greg. In the emails, Greg used strong language to abuse and criticize her work. Those emails were broadcasted to the whole team and the managers, but no one respond to it. b. Your colleague Jack maintain his private blog online. Occasionally, he will post comments on his work and the company. You find that his blog has a link to a website "YourCompanySucks." He explained to you that he maintains his blog during non-working hours, and he is not the owner or author of that website.

Answer 1

a. Advice Greg and Linda

b. Nothing

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, a code of conduct is usually a written set of instructions detailing the company's rules on general employee behaviour.

a. Although no one responded including the managers who are in the position to do so, it is ethical for me as the IT security professional to advice both Greg and Linda on obeying the company's rules.

b. Since Greg by his statemendoes not directly go against the code of conduct of not using computer assets during working hours, I don't need to do anything.
