ATTACH M E N TS: Description Type Remote Access P o lic y Backup Material Access Control P o lic y Backup Material EAST VALLEY WATER DISTRICT Administrative Policies & Programs Policy Title: Remote Access Policy Original Approval Date: Last Revised: Policy No: Page 1 of 3 Purpose The purpose of this policy is to define standards, procedures, and restrictions for connecting to the District’s internal networks from an external network via remote access technology. The District’s resources must be protected from unauthorized use and/or malicious attack that could result in loss of information, damage to critical applications, disruption of services, and loss of revenue. Scope This policy applies to all authorized users that includes full-time staff, part-time staff, contractors, and other agents who access the District’s data and networks through District- owned or personally -owned computers. Employment at the District does not automatically guarantee the granting of remote access privileges. Remote access is defined as any connection to the District’s network and/or other applications from off -site locations. This policy applies to a ny and all work performed for the District on District or personally - owned computers through a remote access connection of any kind. Work may include, but is not limited to, virtual private network (VPN), remote desktop applications, databases, servers, email correspondence, web browsing, Intranet resources, and any other District application used over the Internet. District resources include corporate data, computer systems, networks, databases, and other digital systems. Policy It is the responsibility of any authorized user of the District with remote access privileges , to ensure that their remote access connection remains as secure as the network access within the office to protect District resources (i.e. data, computer systems, networks, databases, etc.). It is imperative that any remote access connection used to conduct District business be utilized appropriately, responsibly, and ethically. Therefore, the following rules must be observed: EAST VALLEY WATER DISTRICT Administrative Policies & Programs Policy Title: Remote Access Policy Original Approval Date: Last Revised: Policy No: Page 2 of 3 A. Authorized users agree not to disclose their passwords to anyone consistent with the guidelines of the District’s Password Policy. B. All remote computer equipment and devices used for business interests, whether personal or District-owned, must display reasonable physical security measures. Computers will have an antivirus software installed that is deemed necessary by the District’s Information Technology (IT) department. C. Any remote connection that is configured to access the District’s resources must adhere to the authentication requirements of the District’s IT department. In addition, all hardware security configurations (personal or District-owned) must be approved by the District’s Information Technology department. D. Authorized users will make no modifications of any kind to the remote access connection or network settings without the express approval of the District’s IT department. E. Authorized users with remote access privileges must ensure that their computers are not connected to non-District network s while connected to the District’s network via remote access, with the exception of Internet connectivity. F. Use of Internet access through District networks via remote connection for the purpose of illegal transactions, harassment, or obscene behavior is not permitted in accordance with the Access Control Policy. G. If a District-owned computer or related equipment used for remote access is damaged, lost, or stolen, the authorized user will be responsible for notifying their manager and District’s IT department immediately. H. In order to maintain system security, the authorized user agrees to immediately report to their manager and District’s IT department any incident or suspected incidents of unauthorized access and/or disclosure of Distr ict resources, databases, networks, etc. I. The authorized user agrees to and accepts that his or her access and/or connection to the District’s networks may be monitored to record dates, times, duration of access, etc., in order to identify unusual usage patterns or other suspicious activity. As with in-house computers, this is done in order to identify accounts/computers that may have been compromised by external parties. EAST VALLEY WATER DISTRICT Administrative Policies & Programs Policy Title: Remote Access Policy Original Approval Date: Last Revised: Policy No: Page 3 of 3 J. MFA may be required for cloud-based applications and to establish all VPN connections to encrypt and provide secure access to a remote computer over the Internet. Multi -Factor Authentication (MFA) is a method of computer access control in which an authorized user is granted access only after successfully presenting multiple separate pieces of evidence to an authentication mechanism – typically at least two of the following categories: knowledge (something they know), possession (something they have), and inherence (something they are). A District issued or personally -owned smart phone is typically used to satisfy the “possession” authentication mechanism. K. Determination of remote access authorization will be at the discretion of the IT department and the individual’s Supervisor. EAST V ALLEY WATER DISTRICT Administrative Policies & Programs Policy Title: Access Control Policy Original Approval Date: Last Revised: Policy No: Page 1 of 3 Purpose The purpose of this policy is to maintain an adequate level of security to protect the District’s data and information systems from unauthorized access. This policy defines the rules necessary to achieve this protection and to ensure a secure and reliable operation of the District’s information systems. Scope This policy applies to all authorized users that includes District employees, including full- time staff, part-time staff, contractors, and other agents who utilize District or personally - owned computers to access data, information systems, files, and communications systems of the District. Policy A. Only authorized users are granted access to information systems and are limited to specific defined, documented, and approved applications, and levels of access rights. Computer and communication system access control is to be achieved via user IDs that are unique to each individual user to provide individual accountability. B. Authorized users (remote or internal), accessing networks and systems, must be authenticated and adhere to the District’s Password Policy. C. Authorized users will only receive access to networks, files, applications, and information systems specifically authorized to them. 1. The District will follow the principle of least privilege to grant access. Authorized users will only receive access to the minimum applications and privileges required to perform their job duties. D. All workstations used to conduct business activity, no matter where they are located, must use an access control system approved by the Information Technology department. In most cases this will involve password-enabled screen-savers with a time-out-after-no-activity feature and a power on password prompt. 1. Active workstations are not to be left unattended for prolonged periods of time, where appropriate. When an authorized user leaves a workstation, that EAST V ALLEY WATER DISTRICT Administrative Policies & Programs Policy Title: Access Control Policy Original Approval Date: Last Revised: Policy No: Page 2 of 3 authorized user is expected to lock their workstation or properly log out of all applications and networks. 2. Where appropriate, inactive workstations will be reset after a period of inactivity. Authorized users will then be required to re-log on to continue usage. This minimizes the opportunity for unauthorized users to assume the privileges of the intended user. 3. Automated mechanisms may be used to ease the use of this process. E. A process to create, deactivate, and delete user accounts must be in place. This process allow s for the assignment or removal of access rights for authorized users to all systems and technology services. F. System access controls will be applied to all information systems based on its data classification to ensure that it is not improperly disclosed, modified, deleted, or rendered unavailable. G. Periodic reviews of user access rights and use of accounts are to be conducted by the Information Technology department or other department depending on their type of system or data classification. H. Upon separation with the District, user access rights will be revoked. 1. The District will employ automated processes here to remove temporary accounts after a determined amount of time. A similar automated process will exist for disabling inactive accounts. 2. The District will also t erminate any accounts deemed to present a potential high risk to District operations. I. A limit of unsuccessful log -ons will be enforced and an automatic account lock will be enabled. J. Time and date of log -ons and account changes will be appropriately recorded and monitored. K. Remote access to the District’s networks, applications, information systems, files, and data must conform to the District’s Remote Access Policy. EAST V ALLEY WATER DISTRICT Administrative Policies & Programs Policy Title: Access Control Policy Original Approval Date: Last Revised: Policy No: Page 3 of 3 L. Logging and audit trails will be applied to information systems, communications systems, files, and data. The level of logging and audit trails will vary based on regulatory requirements, compliance requirements, and cybersecurity initiatives. Logging and audit trails shall record, at a minimum, the access time and user account. M. The District will enact separation of duties to decrease abuse of privileges. N. Authorized users are prohibited from gaining unauthorized access to any other information systems, communications systems, files, and data not granted to them.

Personal attacks against fellow Board members or staff are not representative of a constructive  culture. 7  Adopted October 8, 2014      East Valley Water District Board of Director’s Handbook     Chapter 4 – Staff Interaction The efficient and effective delivery of services to the customers of the East Valley Water District is a  collaborative effort between the elected members of the Board of Directors and those individuals  employed to execute the District’s day‐to‐day operations. The Board’s relationship and interaction with  its professional staff must be carefully cultivated and nurtured at all times.    The Board’s Relationship with the General Manager/CEO    One of the most vital relationships the District Board has is between itself and its General Manager/CEO.  The General Manager/CEO is the primary agent of the Board and is the one to whom the Board  delegates its authority to manage and administer the District's daily operations in accordance with  approved policies. This position is important because to be successful, the District requires leadership  and vision from its General Manager/CEO. In this capacity, the General Manager/CEO has two roles:  Chief Executive Officer and top advisor to the Board. As the most visible employee, the General  Manager/CEO truly represents the District to its many constituencies.    Much of the District’s success will be dependent upon a positive relationship between the Board and its  General Manager/CEO. Paradoxically, the leadership nature of both parties means that this relationship  will likely create some inherent tensions; a strong Board and a strong General Manager/CEO will not  always agree on every issue. However, both must consciously focus on maintaining a shared sense of  purpose, open communication, honesty, trust and mutual support. While the General Manager/CEO is  hired to carry out Board policy directives, the Board also looks to him/her for guidance and leadership.    One of the most important decisions a Board will make is the selection of a General Manager/CEO in  whom they have confidence. The Board must be able to support the decisions of the General  Manager/CEO and grant him/her the authority to manage and lead the District. This is critical for  building the General Manager/CEO’s credibility with the staff and the community. Both parties should  always publicly support each other.    It is the General Manager/CEO’s responsibility to ensure that the Board members have all the  information they need to make Board‐level decisions and that all Board members are provided the same  information. Board members expect the General Manager/CEO to make a recommendation on every  issue before the Board, except those that are strictly reserved to the Board.    The following are guidelines are intended to help define the relationship between the Board and the  General Manager/CEO:    8  Adopted October 8, 2014    1. The General Manager/CEO prepares annual goals which are approved by the Board of Directors  as a part of a formal performance review process.  2. The Board of Directors will provide the General Manager/CEO with a written evaluation  annually.  3. Board members are encouraged to contact the General Manger/CEO about any subject related  to the operations of the District. Similarly, the General Manger/CEO may discuss any District  related issue with any member of the Board of Directors.  4. Concerns regarding overall District operations or specific department issues or department  heads are addressed with the General Manager/CEO.  5. Critical information will be provided to all members of the Board by the General Manager/CEO,  which feedback may be verbal, written, or electronic in nature.  6. The General Manager/CEO handles interdepartmental issues .  7. The General Manager/CEO shall advise the Board of Directors when he/she is out of the office  for an extended period of time and shall designate the individual who shall be acting General  Manager/CEO during that time.    Request for Staff Resources    Individual Board member requests for research or otherby staff work must be directed to the General  Manager/CEO, or the District’s legal counsel regarding legal matters. If, in the judgment of the General  Manager/CEO, more than one hour of staffa significant amount of time will be required to complete the  requested task/project, the item may be agendized to solicit Board authorization to expend the  additional time necessary on the proposed item. Staff responses to Board member requests shall will be  provided to the General Manager/CEO and distributed to all Board members.    Interactions with Staff    District staff serves the entire Board of Directors as a whole. Consequently, the Board should adhere to  the following guidelines in its interaction with the staff:    1. A Board member shall not direct staff to initiate any action, change a course of action, or  prepare any report without the approval of the General Manager/CEO and, if necessary, a  majority of the Board.   2. Board members shall not attempt to pressure or influence discussions, recommendations,  workloads, schedules, or priorities.   3. When preparing for Board meetings, Board members should direct questions ahead of time  to the General Manager/CEO so that staff can provide the desired information at the Board  meeting.   4. Any concerns by a member of the Board regarding the behavior or work of a District  employee should be directed to the General Manager/CEO privately to ensure that the  concern is addressed. Board members shall not reprimand employees directly nor should  they communicate their concerns to anyone other than the General Manager/CEO.   9  Adopted October 8, 2014    5. Soliciting political support from staff (e.g., financial contributions, display of posters or lawn  signs, name on support list, etc.) is prohibited. District staff may, as private citizens with  constitutional rights, support political candidates, but all such activities must be done away  from the workplace and may not be conducted while on the job.  10  Adopted October 8, 2014    10.   East Valley Water District 11.
