Hi list, you know, im trying to implement some kind of security issues
on my network but i would like to consult BS7799 or ISO17799 but as
you know we have to pay for it.
So... Do you know where can i download a versiĆ³n of these documents
without paying? No matter if they are older version, you know is only
for educational purposes.

Thankxs

Samuel,

The Sams Reading Room (sans.org/rr) has a lot of good stuff. I have a
very nice article here, but it's in portuguese.

I can translate and send it, if you want to...

I've recently taken over the position of I.T. Director for a mid-sized
company that has no IT policy of any sort currently in place, aside
from a vague mention in the no compete agreement about not giving
proprietary data to other companies. One of my prime initiatives at
the moment is to implement such a policy, something I've never been
responsible for before. Can anyone point me to sites/articles on how
to do this? Or, better yet, does anyone know of such a policy
available online that I could use as a basis for my company? Any
suggestions are most welcome.

Might I suggest a copy of Tom Limconcelli & Christine Hogan's <A
HREF="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/asin/0201702711/wingfoot-20";
TARGET="_blank">The Practice of System and Network
Administration</A>--he covers creating security policies and such.

It's an amazing reference book--it's been on my shelf since it was
published! :)

Best,
