Information security (InfoSec):

Information security is the protection of information in the organization; it helps to manage data access, web-browsing behaviors, passwords usage and encryption, email attachments, and so on.

  • It is designed to provide structure in the workplace, create a productive and effective work place.
  • It is free from unnecessary distractions.

Describe the security procedures used to control employee conduct and stop information from being misused.
Search the Web for three different employee hiring and termination policies. Review each and look carefully for inconsistencies. Do each of the policies have sections that address information security requirements? What clauses should a termination policy contain to prevent disclosure of an organization's information? Create your own version of either a hiring policy or a termination policy.
It could be instructive to relate an example of a recent security breach that included access control or authentication. Do you believe it has had an impact on the company's day-to-day operations? To be more specific, can you tell me whether or whether the firm has suffered any losses?
