Information Security Policies, Procedures, and Standards: A Practitioner's Reference gives you a blueprint on how to develop effective information security policies and procedures. It uses standards such as NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, and COBIT, and regulations such as HIPAA and PCI DSS as the foundation for the content.
Highlighting key
terminology, policy development concepts and
methods, and suggested document structures,
it includes examples, checklists, sample
policies and procedures, guidelines, and a
synopsis of the applicable standards.
The author explains how and why procedures
are developed and implemented rather than
simply provide information and examples.
This is an important distinction because no
two organizations are exactly alike;
therefore, no two sets of policies and
procedures are going to be exactly alike.
This approach provides the foundation and
understanding you need to write effective
policies, procedures, and standards clearly
and concisely.
