Good Morning,

Earlier this week I was approached by my Superintendent who wondered =
what protections or policies were in place to ensure privacy and =
confidentiality of e-mails, documents, etc. in regards to the Network =
Administrator. Do your Network Admins need to sign a code of ethics? Or =
is the general operating procedure to trust them to do their job and =
stay out of business that is not related to them? I think the =
Superintendent was trying to ensure protection for the Network Admin if =
any accusations were to come up.


Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!
