Security Policy and Procedure Template

Today, more than ever, companies are confronted with a broad array of electronic document issues, including data retention policies and e-discovery during litigateion. Failing to comply with rules regarding such electronic data can cost millions of dollars.

Security Manual TemplateEvery corporation and organization needs a universal and comprehensive set of security processes to safeguard the use of their computers, all related equipment and information assets which support enterprise wide operations. The Security Manual Template meets those needs.

For instance in one case, the SEC alleged that a company failed to produce tens of thousands of emails sought by the SEC in two investigations. The court entered an 8-page consent judgment against the company.

Whether it is government agencies, research facilities, banking institutions, credit card processing companies, hospitals or your company's computers - the risk of compromising private information is very high -- especially when when conducting a disaster recovery tests.  Since  business relies so heavily on technology today, business risk becomes technology dependent. The possibility of litigation is part of business. It has always been a risk of doing business, but because technology and today's business are so intertwined, business risk has a higher threat level. 

The Security template complies with Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, Cobit and mandated state requirements. The template includes a sensitive information policy and has been updates to include checklists for employee terminations and other security related forms.  In the age of information, organizations live and die on one thing, information. "Security breaches can have dramatic impact the information assets of every organization", stated Janco's CEO.

Implementing an understandable and usable set of security policies and procedures is a necessity. Janco's Security Manual Template provides guidelines and actual policies and procedures for any organizations. It is a model any sized organization can use. It is comprehensive without being wordy or pedantic.
 
This electronic document is over 230 pages and can be used in the creation of security policies and procedures for any size entity. The process of creating effective policies and procedures that comply with mandated requirements such as Sarbanes-Oxley and Massachusetts Data Protection with the current security threats and tight budgets is daunting.
