It
is difficult to keep track of the many developments that there have been
in IT law recently. However, it is critical that computer auditors
have a working knowledge of the law affecting their work. This talk
is a practical guide to the law relating to data protection, spamming and
email marketing. It will also outline how to avoid employment
problems relating to the use of computers and a well-tested specimen staff
computer use policy will be provided.
