Topic: Implementing Information Security Policies and
Standards - A Real Life Example
When: March 11, 2008 11:30 Registration, Meeting begins at 12:00 noon. Where: Bristol Bar & Grille Downtown, 614 West Main Street, Louisville, KY Speaker: Bruce W. Edwards, UofL Summary: Information Security Policies and Standards: Lots of talk but where's the beef? Learn how the University of Louisville successfully adopted and is currently implementing InfoSec policies and standards while dodging sand traps along the way! Information Security Policies and Standards are one thing we hear a lot of talk about but frequently find lacking within an organization. Often the policies and standards are old, not enforced consistently (if at all) or both! In this session we will: 1. Review basic elements of policies, standards and procedures and how they differ from each other; 2. Review what should be included in an overall set of Information Security Policies and Standards 3. Discuss different approaches to how policies should be formulated (General, specific, technology neutral or technology specific, etc) 4. Update the old or "start from scratch"? How can you tell if it is better to work with what you have or start over. 5. Ways to achieve management acceptance and buy-in, including dealing with historically resistant groups. 6. What separates effective from ineffective policies and how to keep yours in the effective group. 7. Discuss the "one time and your done" syndrome". 8. How Information Security Policies and Standards were totally revamped and revitalized at the University of Louisville and lessons learned from that on-going experience. About Bruce: Bruce has over 21 years audit, security and training experience in the Life Insurance, Utilities, Education & Health Insurance industries.
