Title: Develop organization code of conduct policy
Ownership: Customer
Description: Microsoft recommends that your organization develop, document, and distribute a code of conduct which clarifies your organization's mission, values, and principles, linking them with standards of professional conduct. A code of conduct policy articulates the values the organization wishes to foster in leaders and employees and defines desired behavior. It is recommended that the code of conduct policy includes rules that prohibit illegal activities such as supply, exchange, transmission , storage, or use of digital media for propagation of violence, war of aggression, sowing hatred among citizens, share secrets related to military / national security / economic / external relation, damage reputation of any organization, or promote goods and service banned by law, illegal activities in information application and development, obstruction of the operation of systems of national domain/name servers, and destruction of information in the network. Your organization may consider seeking legal approval or guidance when developing the code of conduct to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) outlaws: - Knowingly accessing a computer without authorization or exceeding authorized access and obtaining information that has been determined by the United States Government to require protection against unauthorized disclosure for reasons of national defense or foreign relations, or any restricted data, with the intent or reason to believe that such information so obtained is to be used to the injury of the United States - Intentionally accessing a computer without authorization or exceeding authorized access and obtaining information contained in a financial record of a financial institution, or of a card issuer, or contained in a file of a consumer reporting agency on a consumer - Intentionally, without authorization accessing any computer of a department or agency of the United States, accesses such a computer of that department or agency that is exclusively for the use of the Government of the United States or, in the case of a computer not exclusively for such use, is used by or for the Government of the United States and such conduct affects the use of the Government's operation of such computer - Intentionally accessing a Federal interest computer without authorization, and by means of one or more instances of such conduct altering, damaging, or destroying information in any such Federal interest computer, or prevents authorized use of any such computer or information and - Knowingly and with intent to defraud traffics in any password or similar information through which a computer may be accessed without authorization, if such trafficking affects interstate or foreign commerce, or such computer is used by or for the Government of the United States The Dubai Consumer Protection Regulations (Telecommunications Regulatory Authority) prohibit materials that induce, encourage, or validate any behavior that is inconsistent with the social, cultural, moral, or religious values which apply generally within the UAE. Material, which is generally not acceptable includes, but is not limited to, offensive language, violence, sex, nudity, sexual violence, humiliation, violation of human dignity, discriminatory treatment or language, derogatory treatment of religious subjects and values, with regard to the sensitivities of Islam, and the use of drugs, alcohol and tobacco; and comply with all applicable laws of the UAE.

FedRAMP_High_R4 PL-4 FedRAMP_High_R4_PL-4 FedRAMP High PL-4 Planning Rules Of Behavior Shared n/a The organization: a. Establishes and makes readily available to individuals requiring access to the information system, the rules that describe their responsibilities and expected behavior with regard to information and information system usage; b. Receives a signed acknowledgment from such individuals, indicating that they have read, understand, and agree to abide by the rules of behavior, before authorizing access to information and the information system; c. Reviews and updates the rules of behavior [Assignment: organization-defined frequency]; and d. Requires individuals who have signed a previous version of the rules of behavior to read and resign when the rules of behavior are revised/updated. Supplemental Guidance: This control enhancement applies to organizational users. Organizations consider rules of behavior based on individual user roles and responsibilities, differentiating, for example, between rules that apply to privileged users and rules that apply to general users. Establishing rules of behavior for some types of non-organizational users including, for example, individuals who simply receive data/information from federal information systems, is often not feasible given the large number of such users and the limited nature of their interactions with the systems. Rules of behavior for both organizational and non-organizational users can also be established in AC-8, System Use Notification. PL-4 b. (the signed acknowledgment portion of this control) may be satisfied by the security awareness training and role-based security training programs conducted by organizations if such training includes rules of behavior. Organizations can use electronic signatures for acknowledging rules of behavior. Related controls: AC-2, AC-6, AC-8, AC-9, AC-17, AC-18, AC-19, AC-20, AT-2, AT-3, CM-11, IA-2, IA-4, IA-5, MP-7, PS-6, PS-8, SA-5. References: NIST Special Publication 800-18. link 9
