Audience Teams Your viewers is of course all your company workers, but this group can be
divided into audience sub-categories, with the members of every sub-category most likely to look
for various things from IT Security Policy
.
The primary audiences teams are: Management -Technical Staff - methods directors and Finish
Customers
The audience for the policy will figure out what's integrated in every policy doc.
For example, you may not usually want to consist of an explanation of why something is
necessary in a policy - if your reader is a technical custodian and responsible for configuring the
system this may not be essential because they are most likely to currently know why that
particular action requirements to be carried out. Likewise, a manager is unlikely to be troubled
with the technicalities of why something is done, but they may want the high-level overview or the
governing principle powering the motion. Nevertheless, in case your reader is an end-user, it may
be useful to incorporate a explanation of why a particular security control is necessary simply
because this will not only aid their comprehending, but will also make them more most likely to
comply with the policy.
Allow for the fact that the readers will want to use the policies in a number of methods, probably
even in more than one way at one time. For instance, when first reading a policy document, an
end-user may be interested in reading the whole document to learn about everything they need to
do to help protect the security of the company. On an additional later occasion however, the user
may reference the doc to check the exact wording of a single policy statement on a specific topic.
Given the selection of problems, readers, and uses for policy, how can we hope to address them
in one document? The solution is that we cannot.
Companies should make sure that their information security policy paperwork are coherent with
viewers requirements and to do this it's frequently essential to use a number of different doc types
inside a policy framework. Which type of document you use will be determined in large part by the
viewers for that doc. For example, an overall Acceptable Use Policy will be in the type of a higher
level document, while a doc that describes how to configure the immediate messaging method to
make sure it complies with the Acceptable Use Policy may be in the form of a job aid or
recommendations document.
Supervisor and end customers are likely to be interested the former, while administrative staff are
more most likely to use the latter. Governing Policy Governing Policy should include information
security ideas at a high level, define these concepts, explain why they're important, and detail
what your company's stand is on them. Governing Policy will be study by managers and end
users. By default it will also be read by specialized custodians (especially security specialized
custodians) since they can also be finish customers. All these groups will use the policy to gain a
feeling of the company's overall security policy philosophy.
This can be used to inform their information security-related conversation with business models
throughout the company. Governing Policy should be closely aligned with current and long term
HR (Human Resources) as well as other company policies, especially any which point out
security related issues like e-mail or computer use, and so on. The Governing Policy doc will be
on the same level as these company-wide policies. Governing Policy is supported by the
Technical Policies which cover topics in more depth and include to these subjects be dealing with
them for each related technology.
