Develop appropriate disaster response protocols
One of the most important aspects of information assurance is ensuring that proper policies and procedures are established within an organization. Without proper policies and procedures, there would be no order. By implementing appropriate statements of policy and developing effective procedures, IT administrators ensure that incidents can be appropriately responded to, and that individuals within the organization understand their roles within the information assurance plan. Individuals in an organization would not be able to adequately understand their roles without the establishment of these statements of policy.
Prompt: In Module Seven, you will submit your plan pertaining to statements of policy. You will recommend protocols and mitigating factors to the organization and justify how the disaster response protocols will mitigate the threats to and vulnerabilities of the organization. You will focus on disaster and incident response protocols as well as access control.
