Question:

You always see a screen with the company's name and some text when you log into a computer at work. Before you can access the company network, you must click OK. What is the purpose of a company's custom splash screen?

A Confirming agreement to an AUP
explanation

What users are and are not permitted to perform on the company's network is outlined in the acceptable use policy (AUP). Before allowing employees to use the network, many companies utilize a splash screen to make sure they have read and agree to the AUP or other company policies. A splash screen may appear while the program is loading in various settings, such as a kiosk or an app, and in those situations, it may be used to advertise products or reinforce a brand. On the network, there exist tools for tracking employee time, but the splash screen is not one of them.
