Scope

This standard defines the expectations which apply to the use of BCC resources to create, store and publish web pages on public BCC Web servers in accordance with the BCC IT security standard addressing “Web Servers”). This standard is necessary to help ensure the information and services provided to students, employees and the general public through the web meet a minimum set of standards and to help assure integrity and reliability of the BCC internal networks and the computers on those networks.

The guidelines in this standard will be applied when appropriate to the specialized Distance Education teaching portal (currently VISTA) and the BCC Portal (currently SharePoint) maintained and monitored by Web Services, but required exceptions may be granted by the Director of Web Services.
