Interception and Monitoring Law - Webcast
Our Interception and Monitoring Law took place on 16 May 2007 at 2:00.pm to 3:30.pm. JISC Legal provided practical guidance on when and how it is legal to access another person's email account, computer hard drive or network storage. Reasons for doing this might be related to long term staff absence, student disciplinary investigation, and even antivirus scanning.
