Abstract

With respects to employees’ computers activity, do you know who, where, when and what goes on in case you are not monitoring in your organization? It simply takes a solitary unmonitored PC to leave a security hole in your institution. This study intended to recommend use of an electronic monitoring supervision. Data analysed showed that the Faculty and support Staff have different opinion in regard to adoption of electronic monitoring supervision. The research found out among other findings that organizations had faced various problems related to unsupervised use of the internet, staff of the organization did not mind to be monitored and that an electronic monitoring supervision should be adopted. The Research recommends adoption of electronic monitoring supervision and an electronic monitoring supervision framework was developed to aid in the adoption.
