Defining and Adopting an End User Computing Policy: A Case Study
share
End User Computing carries significant risks if not well controlled. This paper is a case study of the introduction of an updated End User Computing policy at the Wesleyan Assurance Society. The paper outlines the plan and identifies various challenges. The paper explains how these challenges were overcome.

The policy uses a risk based approach for assessing and mitigating against the highest risks first and obtaining the quickest benefit.
