Q

Information Governance Frameworks and Standards

Steps to create a favorable security culture include the following:

BMIS

A
  • Involve personnel in discussions about the protection of critical assets.
  • Executive leadership must lead by example and follow all policies.
  • Include security responsibilities in all job descriptions.
  • Include security factors in employees’ compensation- for example, merit increases and bonuses.
  • Link the protection of critical assets to the long-term success of the organization.
  • Integrate messages related to the protection of assets, and other aspects of the information security program, intoexisting communications such as newsletters.
  • Incorporate “secure by design” into key business pro- cesses so that security is part of the organization’s routine activities.
  • Reward and recognize desired behavior; similarly, admonish undesired behavior privately.
