Information security best practice project: The information security best project was housed within the Oxford University computer emergency response team. The project sought build on the knowledge, commentary and information gathered during the 2009 self-assessment exercise. One of the main objectives of the project was to develop an information security toolkit, which includes the policies, guidelines, documentation and education and awareness programmers.
Information security: In a devolved environment, such as a collegiate university, it is imperative that policy should not go into retail about how those objectives should be met. It also defines the scope of the policy and identifies roles and responsibilities for security.
Information security toolkit: The example polies can be tailored to suit the individual needs of your department, college or hall. The toolkit focuses on some areas like,
IT management
Operations
Network Management
Physical Security
Building on the 2009 self-Assessment: The 2009 Self-Assessment exercise asked unit within the collegiate university to assess their current approach to IT operations, management and security against recommended best practice guidelines. The information gathered helped the advisory group to understand where further attention, resource, and best practice is needed to guide units of the collegiate university in their approach to IT operation.
