The Challenge

emt faced the challenge of updating, managing and tracking its rapidly expanding policy library while monitoring staff signatures.

This needed to be achieved without burdening the business with a costly and time-consuming administrative overhead.

“usecure presented us with an easy to deploy, easy to manage and highly customisable platform.” — Scott Hagenus, Director, Security Solutions

The Solution

uPolicy makes managing policies and signatures hassle-free.

With uPolicy, emt could:

• Automate policy signatures for new employees and recurring policies
• Ensure only one live version of each policy was active at a time
• Draft and review new policies before release
• Manage multi-language policies for a global workforce
• Provide one-click auditor access for compliance reviews

The Results

emt streamlined its policy processes, reducing administrative effort while ensuring compliance and visibility across its workforce.

“usecure encompasses policy management and auditing, cyber security awareness training, testing and simulations as well as a level of breach detection that allows our partners and their customers to identify their level of exposure to human risk and reduce it.” — Scott Hagenus, Director, Security Solutions

How They Did It

emt leveraged uPolicy’s automated signature and publishing tools:

• Drafts created and saved until review-ready
• Built-in templates used to create new policies quickly
• Policies configured for entire workforce, recurring schedules, or new joiners
• Manual send-outs available for exceptions
