Storyboard: Control the Policy Management Lifecycle

Author(s): Jennifer Perrier

IT policies can be time-consuming to develop and manage, but they are absolutely necessary governance tools that help protect the enterprise from legal, financial and ethical risk. This top-level storyboard explores the three main phases of policy lifecycle management:

  • Assessment
  • Development
  • Enforcement

IT policies are not “set and forget” documents – they need to be managed over the course of their lifecycle to ensure they’re still doing their job. Evaluate policy needs and create governing documents that are fair and enforceable.
