1. Module 2: Creating a Plan for Network Security

2. Overview Introduction to Security Policies Designing Security by Using a Framework Creating a Security Design Team

3. Lesson 1: Introduction to Security Policies What Are Security Policies? The Relationship Between Policies and Procedures Typical Reasons Why Security Policies Fail? Guidelines for Creating Policies and Procedures

4. What Are Security Policies? Security policies: Are documents Explain how an organization implements security Are documents Explain how an organization implements security Administrative Policies Technical Policies Physical Policies

5. The Relationship Between Policies and Procedures Policies describe what must be implemented to secure a network Procedures describe how to implement policies

6. Security policies often fail because they are: Typical Reasons Why Security Policies Fail Not enforced Difficult to read Difficult to find Outdated Too vague Too strict Not supported by management Not enforced Difficult to read Difficult to find Outdated Too vague Too strict Not supported by management

7. Guidelines for creating a security plan include: Write clear and concise policies Write simple procedures Obtain management support Ensure employees can find and refer to them easily Ensure no disruption to business processes Use technology to enforce Ensure consequence of violating policy is consistent Create incentives for following security policies Write clear and concise policies Write simple procedures Obtain management support Ensure employees can find and refer to them easily Ensure no disruption to business processes Use technology to enforce Ensure consequence of violating policy is consistent Create incentives for following security policies Guidelines for Creating Policies and Procedures

14. The Deploying Phase for Network Security Tasks when deploying a network security plan: Train the operations team Implement the network security plan Train the operations team Implement the network security plan Envision Plan Develop Stabilize Deploy

15. Lesson 3: Creating a Security Design Team Core Team Members Extended Team Members Guidelines for Creating a Security Design Team

16. Core Team Members RoleResponsible For Product Management Developing and executing the business case Ensuring that the security design aligns with business requirements Identifying and prioritizing risks Aiding communication Program Management Driving the overall project Managing the strategic goals, budget, schedules, and resources Development Designing, building, and testing security measures Testing Piloting testing Setting metrics to ensure quality control User Experience Driving the usability requirements Designing and developing training

17. Extended Team Members RoleResponsible For Executive Sponsor Approving recommendations by the security design team Advocating with upper management Legal Advising the team about local, national, and international laws and liabilities Human Resources Ensuring that security policies do not conflict with employment laws Managers Enforcing security policies End Users Providing feedback about the security policies Auditors Ensuring compliance with government or industry regulations

18. Guidelines for creating a security design team include: Have a single executive sponsor Use an experienced program manager Involve teams that deploy and manage security Involve legal and human resources Involve managers and end users Provide clear roles and responsibilities for all members Communicate regularly and clearly Have a single executive sponsor Use an experienced program manager Involve teams that deploy and manage security Involve legal and human resources Involve managers and end users Provide clear roles and responsibilities for all members Communicate regularly and clearly Guidelines for Creating a Security Design Team
