Section I

Create a post discussing standards and procedures. Discuss the following:

Which standards may apply to your project company?

Explain why these standards are relevant to your company.

How are standards different from procedures?

How are standards and procedures important to the organization?

How are standards and procedures eventually incorporated into policies?

Note that standards can be internal and external.

Section 2

You just became the lead security person at a small company. Assume normal setup, e-mail, company Web site, internal servers, and so forth. Although your title is not chief security officer (CSO), you report directly to the chief information officer (CIO). The person who was previously in your position moved out of state and does not respond to calls or e-mails. The CIO tells you, "You have 90 days to get that area together! I want to see your high-level approach by Monday morning." You have three inexperienced but energetic people on your team, and it is Friday afternoon.

Discuss the following:

What are the 4 key actions you need to take within the first 90 days (or sooner)?

Who will be involved?

Include an explanation of the benefits of these actions

Remember, this is high level, so write two or three paragraphs with the 4 action items highlighted. The majority (90%) of your report will outline what has to be done, and the remainder (10%) should include how this will be done.

Section 3

Create a policy for borrowing a car. What are some of the rules you would give someone if they were to borrow your car? (If you do not have a car, for the sake of this assignment, imagine that you do.) For inspiration, think of some of the rules that apply when renting a car, and consider the following:

Would the borrower be responsible for any parking tickets incurred?

How many miles can they use on your car?

Is food allowed in the car?

What specifically would you expect when they return the car?
