Employee Handbook: Three IT related policies, business and finance homework help

**CASE STUDY IS ATTACHED**

Company Background & Operating Environment

Use the assigned case study for information about “the
company.”

Policy Issue & Plan of Action

The company has grown substantially over the past few
years. The current Employee Handbook was created from a set of templates
purchased from a business services firm. The policies in the handbook were
reviewed by the company’s attorney at the time of purchase. The attorney raised
no objections at that time. During a recent legal review, the company’s
corporate counsel advised that the company update the Employee Handbook to
better address its current operating environment. The Chief Executive Officer
has tasked the Chief of Staff to oversee the handbook updates including
obtaining all necessary approvals from the Corporate Governance Board.

The Chief of Staff met with the full IT Governance
Board to discuss the required policy updates. (The IT Governance Board is
responsible for providing oversight for all IT matters within the company). The
outcome of that meeting was an agreement that the CISO and CISO staff will
update and/or create IT related policies for the employee handbook. These
policies include:

· 
Acceptable Use Policy for Information Technology

· 
Bring Your Own Device Policy

· 
Digital Media Sanitization, Reuse, &
Destruction Policy

Your Task Assignment

As a staff member supporting the CISO, you have been
asked to research what the three policies should contain and then prepare an
“approval draft” for each one. No single policy should exceed two typed pages
in length so you will need to be concise in your writing and only include the
most important elements for each policy.

The policies are to be written for EMPLOYEES and must
explain employee obligations and responsibilities. Each policy must also
include the penalties for violations of the policy and identify who is
responsible for compliance enforcement.

Your “approval drafts” will be submitted to the IT
Governance Board for discussion and vetting. If the board accepts your
policies, they will then be reviewed and critiqued by all department heads and
executives before being finalized by the Chief of Staff’s office. The policies
will also be subjected to a thorough legal review by the company’s attorneys.
Upon final approval by the Corporate Governance Board, the policies will be
adopted and placed into the Employee Handbook.

Research:

1. 
Review the Week 1 & 2 readings.

2. 
Review the sample policies and procedures
provided in Week 1.

3. 
Find additional sources which provide
information about the policy statements which should be covered in three
policies for the Employee Handbook.

Write:

1. 
Prepare briefing package with approval drafts of
the three IT related policies for the Employee Handbook. Your  briefing package must contain the following:

· 
Executive Summary

· 
“Approval Drafts” for

o  Acceptable
Use Policy for Information Technology

o  Bring
Your Own Device Policy

o  Digital
Media Sanitization, Reuse, & Destruction Policy

As you write your policies, make sure that you address
security issues using standard cybersecurity terminology (e.g. 5 Pillars of IA,
5 Pillars of Information Security). See the resources listed under Course
Resources > Cybersecurity Concepts Review for definitions and terminology.

2. 
Use a professional format for your policy
documents and briefing package. A recommended format is provided in the
assignment template file (see the recommended te mplate under Course
Resources).

3. 
Common phrases do not require citations. If
there is doubt as to whether or not information requires attribution, provide a
footnote with publication information or use APA format citations and
references.

4. 
You are expected to write grammatically correct
English in every assignment that you submit for grading. Do not turn in any
work without (a) using spell check, (b) using grammar check, (c) verifying that
your punctuation is correct and (d) reviewing your work for correct word usage
and correctly structured sentences and paragraphs.
