Description:
​​​​
Please note that information classified as Protected (per the Data and Information Security Classification standard) is only accessible to Government of Alberta Employees. External users are therefore not able to download this document. To request access, please contact us: imt.policy@gov.ab.ca.

​This standard seeks to limit external (internet) access to non-production Information Management and Technology (IMT) systems to limit the potential of vulnerability exposure for Government of Alberta (GoA) applications where full security testing has not yet been completed.

​This standard replaces the Allowing External Access to Non-Production Services Guideline.​
