Acceptable Internet & Computer Use for Connecticut Employees

If you haven't already received it, you should review the newest iteration of our state employee's computer & internet use policies - http://www.ct.gov/doit/cwp/view.asp?a=1245&Q=314686. I still stand by what I said about innovation being enhanced by openness, communications, collaboration - i.e., radical trust and that overly rigid policies can stand in the way of that trust.

That said, these are the current rules and we would all do well to carefully read them and abide by them, in the spirit in which they were intended. These regs seek to ensure that we're getting our jobs done and that we're not misusing the resources provided for us to do so. 'Nuff said on policies. Though this will be an interesting and significant part of the blog workshop that we are offering for our coworkers.
