  • Flextivity Getting Started Guide
    Getting Started Guide Before you set up your account, you may want to spend a few minutes thinking about what you want to get out of Flextivity. Of course, Flextivity helps you successfully manage basic security such as Anti-Malware protection and a powerful Network Firewall across the computers in your organization. However, Flextivity goes beyond this. We have included a few tools to help you get the most out of your deployment. Acceptable Use Policies Most employees really want to do a good job and be productive. Nonetheless, personal Internet use has been found to be one of the number one time wasters at work. Experiments have shown that people who are able to successfully resist the temptation to surf at work make more mistakes than they would if there were no temptation[1]. It’s harder for them to learn new skills, too. The practical implication of this is that employers shouldn’t have rules against surfing and then leave access to the web wide open. Instead, it’s best to allow internet access only when it is appropriate. Intego Flextivity gives you the flexibility to manage your acceptable use policy the way that works for you. Do you want to limit use on your office wifi, but let employees surf as they please when they take laptops home? With Flextivity, you can do that. Do you want to put reasonable limits on social media surfing in the office – say, 30 minutes over the course of a day? You can do that too. Intego Flextivity helps you balance trust and team morale while putting common sense checks in place.
