AUPs, Policies & Regs

The efficiency of information technology depends directly on the individuals that implement, configure, troubleshoot and operate the technology infrastructure on a day-to-day basis. The regulations, policies, and procedures are the foundation of efficient technology operations. In order to have an effective information technology infrastructure, an entity must have technology, people, and processes. The regulations, policies, and guidelines of NISD are in place to inform and protect the data, users, and stakeholders of the District.
