I would definitely involve your general counsel and your campus police in the development of this SOP.  There are a lot 
of good examples and templates available.  If you do a search on the EDUCAUSE Web site, you will find some of those.   
Once you get that developed, your next step will be your hardest, getting everyone on board to follow it.

Subject: [SECURITY] Federal Rules of Evidence

Hello All,

I am wondering if anyone has developed guidelines, policy, or procedures that you follow for every IT investigation?  
This would cover chain of custody, line of authorities, retention of information, report formats, etc.  I am looking to 
standardize all investigations so if an internal investigation ever becomes civil or criminal all evidence will  hold 
up.

Please reply on or off list.

Thanks,
