Streaming Media Policy

Streaming media involves access to audio and video content via the internet. There are many legitimate business reasons to access streamed audio and video files, such as engaging in training, reviewing news or industry-related content and conducting business research.

This policy, written by Scott Matteson for TechRepublic Premium, provides guidelines for the appropriate use of streaming media on systems and devices that access company networks.

    Featured text from the policy:

    Managers should work with the human resources and the IT and security departments to establish which sites and services are necessary for business operations and to include them in this policy; educate users on how to access these and for which purposes; and ensure they are not blocked by firewalls, endpoint protection software or other security mechanisms.

    Any accounts and passwords used to access streaming media services and sites for business duties should be stored in a centrally managed password database, and shared with appropriate colleagues and/or management. These passwords must be rotated when personnel who have used them depart from the organization.
