Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.
All components must be included in addition to a clear introduction and conclusion . The
introductory paragraph is needed to briefly explain the company chosen and the purpose of the IT Security Policy. A conclusion is required to summarize the policy and the requirements discussed.
The purpose of this paper is to research “how” to write an information assurance policy. It
should read like real guidance you would deliver to a company someday. The citations should be used to give clarity or credibility to a statement you are making. It may be helpful to search the Jerry Falwell Library for scholarly sources that describe what is in an "Information Assurance Policy", "Information Security Plan," or "Information Security Policy."
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
