Explanation

Logon banners are displayed to users at the point of login, before they gain access to a system. They serve as a legal notice that the system is monitored and that continued use constitutes consent. This is the only method that directly reaches external users in a timely, enforceable way. Wall posters and Employee Handbooks are internal-facing and unreachable by external parties, while written agreements require a separate process and are not displayed dynamically at the session level.
