What restrictions, if any, do your organizations place on things like IM or social networking sites? I sent out a warning to the office personnel this morning regarding the new "IM Virus" and got an email back from the CEO basically stating "shouldn't that be a violation of company policy anyway?" and I had to tell him, I knew of no policies regarding that; and that in fact, my former supervisor was fully aware of at least one person (who's child is overseas in the military) who used IM on a semi-regular basis.
For this reason, I'm working on coming up with a company policy. I've looked at the sample template from SANS as well as another one that someone sent me off-list. I'm planning on incorporating the best of everything I get, so if anyone has any suggested language regarding IM or social networking, please let me have it.
