Policy

The first part of building a security program is to ensure that policies, procedure, and guidelines are established and they are communicated downstream so everyone is aware of their responsibilities in protecting the organization and the data consumed/transmitted. RGS Specialists work closely with our clients to:

Determine what type of policies, procedures and guidelines are necessary for proper implementation of a successful security program.  This is accomplished by helping our clients address the following concerns:

  • What do the legislative and regulatory controls mandate be included in my policies, procedures, standards, and guidelines?
  • What leading security practices should be included in the documentation?

Derive the strategy for which policies and procedures are to be disseminated and enforced.

  • Where should I store the documentation?
  • How often should I update them?
  • How do I ensure that they are read and followed?

Our Specialists are experts in auditing and reviewing current documentation to gauge effectiveness and how well they are being adhered to. We can assist in the writing, dissemination, and training on Information Security policies, standards, and procedures, if required. With RGS Specialists assistance, our clients have built successful Policies, Procedures, Standards and Guidelines that have enhanced their security posture.
