Here are the benefits of creating a #network security policy:
1. Provides the company with a blueprint for security purchases and implementations
2. Details steps to follow in case of a security breach or cyber incident
3. Explains what kind of technologies the company should use and cannot use to maintain effective network security. It also accounts for compatibility with the company’s existing tech stack
4. Defines responsibility for every level of the organization—from the board to employees—for sanctioning, implementing, funding, supporting, monitoring, and auditing network security policies
5. Creates a baseline for the next step in the evolution of network security
Builds a basis for an enforceable legal course of action
