I am hoping that the experts on this list might be able to assist me with problem. I have a consultant who is doing some audit work for the company I work for. This consultant has been quoting information about best business practice and standards and has my managment in a bit of a tizzy. So far I have been able to prove or disprove most things that he has been telling my managment, but I am stuck one and it seems that this item has struck a nerve. The consultant has claimed that both NIST and ISO-17799 recomend the use of automated workstation locking after X minutes. I have found information on the NIST Standard but have not been able to find anything on the ISO-17799 standard (or atleast not without buying it). Does anyone on the list happen to have a copy of ISO-17799, if so could you help me prove or disprove this comment? I have done several google searches and all of the links I get end up asking me to purchase the Standard. I think having it would be a good thing, just that I do not have money in my budget to purchase it. Many thanks in advance, Chris.
