Conceptual Framework or Information Security Policy
Journal Title: International Journal of Management, IT and Engineering - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
To protect overall security, it’s important to formulate a clear policy that states what rights the employee has and how the employee should responsibly handle company resources. That policy should be signed by each employee when he or she is first hired. In some instances, having an employee who works with sensitive or proprietary information sign a nondisclosure or confidentiality agreement is also a wise precaution. A good security policy is comprehensive and flexible; often, it’s not a single document but a group of documents, each with its own specific emphasis. The next section discusses general best practices for security policies. Then, you examine major factors that result in an effective set of rules and procedures: the consideration of cyber risk insurance coverage; the need to base a policy on a thorough risk assessment; the need to teach employees about acceptable use of network resources; the need to specify what an employee’s expected privacy rights are when on company property and equipment; the need to enable management to set priorities; the need to help administrators do their jobs; and the need to see a security policy as making subsequent risk analyses possible.
