AW: Writing Security Policies

[Meidinger Chris <chris.meidinger () badenit de>]

Look for a book from New Riders Press called 'Writing Security Policies,'
it's really a gem.

Betreff: Writing Security Policies


I'm doing some work on security policies and effectively have to write one 
from scratch for a company.  Are there any good resource out there that 
anyone can recommend. I have seen books that can be bought with 1000's of 
templates and mission statement etc, are these worth the money? The company 
is based in  the UK, will templates written for US based companies be 
acceptable (with some amendments) s or should I be looking for ones geared 
to the UK only?  Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Al
