Every business should have a written (and thoughtfully prepared) network security plan in place. A thorough policy will cover topics such as:
- Acceptable use policy, to specify what types of network activities are allowed and which ones are prohibited
- E-mail and communications activities, to help minimize problems from e-mails and attachments
- Antivirus policy, to help protect the network against threats like viruses, worms, and Trojan horses
- Identity policy, to help safeguard the network from unauthorized users
- Password policy, to help employees select strong passwords and protect them
- Encryption policy, to provide guidance on using encryption technology to protect network data
- Remote access policy, to help employees safely access the network when working outside the office
