Are there constraints for using telecommunications resources?
Yes. Government-acquired telecommunications resources are intended for the purpose of performing the mission of the Department of Commerce and its operating units. These resources are for the use of the Government in conduct of official business, when specifically determined to be in the best interest of the Government. Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and telecommunications managers are responsible for effectively managing the use of telecommunications resources to ensure that the business of the Government, within their mission area, is carried out effectively and efficiently. IT resources should be used in compliance with laws and regulations that apply to all Government IT resources.
