The lack of an internet usage policy can expose an organization to various risks. Not having an internet usage policy can lead to reduced productivity, infected networks, internet security breaches, increased costs, and even legal liability.

Without an internet usage policy, employees are free to access any website at any time. This kind of access may adversely affect productivity, as employees may use too much of their work time to complete personal tasks. In addition, access even to seemingly harmless websites can lead to virus or spyware attacks that can infect the organization’s network. An infected network can slow or prohibit necessary business activities and transactions. Finally, without an internet usage policy, employees may access inappropriate websites inadvertently or on purpose, opening the organization to legal liability.
