Or...you can have a high level policy, a mid level plan, and individual
departmental procedures to comply to the high level policy.  The plan
bridges the procedures (many) to one policy.

 Hi Daniel,



If memory serves correctly policies can be layered. So in theory you can
have a high level policy, then a faculty/department policy and then even a
system specific policy. This requires that some central authority take
responsibility for managing and even auditing in a decentralised
environment.



Cheers,



Stewart

Hi All.



Have any of you started to use ISO 27002 as official policy over IT
controls?



If so, how did you handle the controls regarding Internal Organization
(6.1) ? As decentralized as we are, we’re finding complications and I’d be
appreciative if anyone who’s solved this problem already could share their
approach/solution.



Thanks,
