Can you help with Cybersecurity Policies?
WHAT IS A POLICY?
A ‘policy’, in cybersecurity terms, is a set of principles that guide
decisions within an organisation. These principles can inform the decisions senior management make or guide employees in their day-today activities, for example, a policy on company passwords.
WHY ARE POLICIES IMPORTANT?
According to recent research,* 95% of security breaches occur through
human error. However, improving your cybersecurity isn’t about blaming employees for their all-too-human mistakes.
The provision of a policies and procedures framework provides all employees with a roadmap for daily operations.
They can also ensure compliance with external laws and regulations.
