By having a well-written policy that covers the following areas, you should be able to react and recover from most situations in minimal time: 1) Risk Assessments 2) Password Policies 3) Administrative Responsibilities 4) User Responsibilities 5) E-mail Policies 6) Internet Policies 7) Disaster Recovery and 8) Intrusion Detection.
