Policy
Abstract
The Public Services Network (PSN) provides technical policies regarding the operation of its network. This provides a high-level guidance for the way in which government networks, as a whole should be managed.
The policies aim to create a simple mechanism for managing network services in government. The objectives of the policies are to:
-
operate the PSN as a single OFFICIAL network enabling services to be consumed from both the Assured and Protected networks.
-
enable the use of cloud email services that meet specific security standards for government email.
-
bring PSN and other government Domain Name System (DNS) services into line with best practice.
