Risk & Compliance Services
Policy & Procedure Development
Build a practical, audit-ready policy framework aligned to your business operations and regulatory obligations. We develop, refine, and operationalize information security and privacy policies with clear roles, workflows, and measurable controls.
Overview
Policies that work in real operations—not just on paper
Policies and procedures are the backbone of ISO 27001/27002-aligned programs, SOC readiness, PCI DSS governance, and local regulatory compliance. We help you define a policy architecture that is clear, enforceable, and easy to maintain—supported by procedures, standards, and templates that teams can actually follow.
What we develop
Information security and privacy policies, supporting standards, and operating procedures—tailored to your environment (on-prem, cloud, hybrid) and your risk profile.
Who it’s for
Organizations preparing for audits, building a security program from scratch, improving governance maturity, or formalizing controls for third-party and customer requirements.
How it’s used
As formal governance documentation, audit evidence, onboarding and training material, and a baseline for technical control implementation and continuous improvement.
How we keep it practical
We map policies to real workflows (access requests, change approvals, incident handling, vendor onboarding) and define ownership, review cycles, and measurable requirements.
Policy library scope (examples)
Your policy library can be scoped to match your compliance targets and operational reality. Below are common policy families we develop and customize.
Core governance: Information Security Policy, Acceptable Use, Asset Management, Risk Management, Third-Party/Vendor Security, Data Classification & Handling, Records Retention. Access & identity: Access Control, Privileged Access Management, Password/MFA, Joiner-Mover-Leaver, Remote Access/VPN, API Key & Secrets Management. Operations: Change & Configuration Management, Logging & Monitoring, Vulnerability Management, Patch Management, Backup & Recovery, Secure Disposal. Application & cloud: Secure SDLC, Secure Coding Standard, CI/CD Controls, Cloud Security Baseline, Container/Kubernetes Baseline. Privacy: Privacy Policy Framework, Data Subject Rights Handling, Breach Notification, Consent & Notice, DPIA/PIA Procedure. Resilience: Incident Response Plan, BCP/DRP Policy, Crisis Communications, Tabletop Exercise Procedure.
Development approach
A structured process from discovery to adoption
We follow a repeatable approach to ensure policies are aligned to risk, mapped to controls, and implementable by teams.
1) Discovery & scope confirmation
Confirm compliance drivers (ISO/SOC/PCI DSS/local regulations), business processes, systems in scope, and current documentation. Identify policy gaps and prioritize based on risk and audit timelines.
2) Drafting & control mapping
Develop policy statements, responsibilities (RACI), and minimum requirements. Map each policy area to control domains and define measurable expectations (e.g., review cycles, logging retention, access approvals).
3) Procedure & template build-out
Create step-by-step procedures and templates that operationalize the policy (access request forms, exception handling, incident tickets, vendor questionnaires, change approval checklists).
4) Validation, rollout & enablement
Run stakeholder reviews, align with HR/IT/legal where needed, finalize versions, and support rollout through briefings and awareness materials. Establish a maintenance cadence and ownership model.
