Information and Information Resources Duke Energy's Code of Business Ethics
Duke Energy's information systems support internal and external business activities. Because these resources connect us with the outside world, there is a risk of attack or exploitation. Duke Energy is committed to protecting these resources from such intrusions.
All Duke Energy employees are responsible for information security. We must be aware of information security processes and policies, and take steps to reduce the risk of security breaches.

Duke Energy employees must:
- Follow all policies and procedures related to the protection of information and information resources, including network access and appropriate use of the Internet and e-mail.
- Report any unusual activities to a local Computer Incident Response Team representative as quickly as possible to facilitate a coordinated response.
Employees must not:
- Let personal use of information system technologies interfere with Duke Energy business activities or incur unnecessary cost.
- Let business or non-business use of information and information resources violate Duke Energy policies or legal requirements.
