IT Policies

There are reference books that will layout the basic policies needed. Look for IT management materials. You could also look at books such as the study book for security+. You could also look for sites that deL with governance and compliance. Zdnet has a a free whitepaper section. You could search there for such material.

Dont know if it will be any help try………

A number of the universities here in Dublin have their Policies freely available on the web

See here for Dublin City University's http//www.dcu.ie/ICTsecurity/index.shtml

or here for Trinity College Dublin's http//www.tcd.ie/ITSecurity/policies

Hope this helps…..

SANS used to keep a lengthy archive of policies, but I have not checked recently. They were my origional source years ago I still have all of them archived.

Thanks to all, I ended up in the SANS archive.

To digress a little, Social Media and 'new' technologies are a bit of a discussion point here at work, I found a whole bunch of discussion and real policies including
Best Buy (http//www.bby.com/cmn/files/Best%20Buy%20Social%20Media%20Guidelines.pdf)
IBM (http//www.ibm.com/blogs/zz/en/guidelines.html)
Intel (http//www.intel.com/sites/sitewide/en_us/social-media.htm)

Plus a list of others at http//laurelpapworth.com/enterprise-list-of-40-social-media-staff-guidelines/

Includes a link to US Air Force policy which is thorough to say the least .

Cheers

not sure how useful but i remember a few years ago we used messagelabs.com for some web and email policies

hope this helps
