Policies and standards Playbook for Teams
RCCE students will learn security policy development, implementation, and lifecycle management including information security policies, acceptable use policies, data classification policies, and incident response policies. RCCE students will learn to develop security policies aligned with organizational objectives and regulatory requirements, structure policy hierarchies (policies, standards, guidelines, procedures), obtain management approval and organizational buy-in, communicate policies effectively to employees, implement policy exceptions processes, conduct periodic policy reviews and updates, measure policy compliance, and enforce policies through technical controls and administrative processes. This team-oriented course builds collaborative workflows and organizational playbooks for security operations. At an expert level, RCCE students will learn to create and implement standardized procedures that enable consistent performance across team members and shifts. Students develop the documentation, communication, and coordination skills needed for effective team-based security operations.
