I am currently in the process of updating one of my website’s resources: sample IT policies and procedures.
Policies and procedures set the foundation for good IT governance. My website maintains sample policies and procedures that set the foundation for effective management; they are relatively simple and are designed for use with small to mid-range organizations. You are free to use, copy, and modify this material to fit your needs.
The IT Authority Policy
The IT Authority Policy identifies the executive responsible for implementing the suite of IT policies and procedures. This is the party responsible for implementation and accountable for implementation. This document serves as authorization from the chief executive or board of directors, delegating authority for managing the IT problem, and becomes the basis from which all other IT Policies are drafted and implemented. This is a reasonable Authority Policy that can be modified to suit your needs; it is intended for use with a small to mid-range business.

Anyone reading “I.T. WARS”? I had to read parts of this book as part of my employee orientation at a new job. The book talks about a whole new culture as being necessary – an eCulture – for a true understanding of security, being that most identity/data thefts are due to simple human errors. It has great chapters on security, content management, acceptable use, and all sorts of policies. Just Google “IT WARS” – check out a couple links down and read the interview with the author David Scott. (Full title is “I.T. WARS: Managing the Business-Technology Weave in the New Millennium”).
