IT User and Cyber Security Policy template

With the risk of cyberattacks increasing daily, it is critically important that all Australian businesses take proactive steps to secure their data.

As a partner of the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) FortiTech is spreading the word about cyber security in small business, which is why we have made an IT User and Cyber Security Policy Template for small businesses in Australia available in our resource centre. You can download the template here.

The template is easy to follow and is broken down into the following sections:

  • Introduction
  • Purpose and Scope
  • Annual IT Review
    • General Security Framework
    • Information security training
    • Information security responsibility
    • Breach of policy
    • Fraud
  • Internet & network access
    • Personal responsibility
    • Provision of internet services
    • Access from Company systems
    • Mobile computers
    • Internet of Things (IoT) Devices
    • Access to external systems
    • Access to internal systems
    • Sensitive information
    • Email usage Illegal or offensive materials
    • Personal internet use
    • User passwords 
    • Multifactor Authentication
  • Business Continuity Planning
  • System Capacity Planning

At FortiTech, we unfortunately see the after effects of the impact of cyber security incidents all too often as we are called in to help unprotected businesses recover.  

We believe in keeping ahead of curve and being proactive when it comes to cyber defences, but understand that businesses are often swamped looking after their daily operations to be able to have the head space for protecting their technology.

We think that this is a great template to get your business thinking about its technology infrastructure, where it is and how it is protected and prompt you to regularly review these processes and to top it off, we have provided it to you in Microsoft Word format so you can easily customise it to your own company branding and enter information with ease.
