Technology to Ensure Fast Investigation and Appropriate Sanctions

With reports that 140 Hertfordshire police officers and civilian staff are being disciplined about the circulation of an email showing a man being decapitated, Nick Kingsbury, CEO of network content monitoring and capturing software firm, Chronicle Solutions advises how to minimise such cases and how future investigations can be carried out more efficiently.

Nick said "This case underlines the importance of, and growing need for, employee monitoring to protect organisations and employees. Monitoring all electronic user communications can help organisations identify misuse of company ICT quickly, which enables them to nip it in the bud before the problem escalates."

Hertfordshire Police were forced to dedicate five months to an investigation following this wrongful activity, to which Nick commented: "Time is key when conducting such investigations and with the appropriate technology, companies can then feel safe in the knowledge that they are fully equipped to respond suitably and promptly. A fast investigation and response will minimise damage to an organisation and to those individuals involved and indisputable evidence will help get to the right result quickly."
