Description: The Information Security Policy is a set of rules and guidelines that govern how an organization manages its information security. Its main objective is to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data, ensuring that sensitive information is safeguarded against unauthorized access, alterations, or losses. This policy encompasses various areas, including data loss prevention (DLP), intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS), and compliance with security regulations. DLP focuses on preventing critical data from being leaked or stolen by implementing controls that monitor and restrict access to sensitive information. On the other hand, IDS/IPS systems are tools that detect and respond to suspicious activities on the network, thus protecting the infrastructure from potential attacks. Finally, security regulations establish standards and regulations that organizations must follow to ensure information protection, such as GDPR in Europe or various data protection laws globally. Together, these elements form a comprehensive strategy that allows organizations to effectively manage the risks associated with information security, promoting a culture of data protection within the company.
