Every company needs written security policies, but whom can you count on to ensure that procedures are documented correctly, followed, and reevaluated? Establishing policies and procedures isn’t a function of your outsourced IT team.

Written security policies are as important as the roadmap for your company & employees to follow, protect your digital assets, and respond when an incident occurs.
