While policies and procedures may not be the most exciting topic, they are critical for the future. Vendors, partners, and insurers will increasingly require not just a list of best practices but also documentation showing how those practices are managed, maintained, and executed.

Policies and procedures protect your organization from security threats like ransomware and phishing attacks, ensure employees are properly trained, and help you comply with industry standards and legal requirements. A standardized format for these documents ensures they’re complete and effective.

They also guide organizations through IT incidents and crises. Are your teams aligned? Do they understand and test your processes regularly? Adhering to cybersecurity policies enhances your reputation, building trust with customers and partners.
