Policies

The written rules that define how your organization manages security and risk.

Overview

Security and governance policies are the documented rules and expectations that guide how your organization operates: acceptable use, access control, incident response, data classification, and more. They're what auditors, customers, and new hires look to for a clear answer to "how do we handle this here."

Why it matters

Every major framework, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST CSF, requires documented policies as the foundation of a control environment. Generic templates pulled off the internet rarely reflect how a company actually operates, which becomes obvious the moment an auditor asks a follow-up question.

How Sense Six Cyber helps

  • Draft policies tailored to your actual environment and tooling, not generic boilerplate
  • Map each policy to the framework controls it satisfies
  • Run an annual review and update cycle
  • Get policies formally approved and communicated internally
  • Prepare policy evidence for audits and customer reviews

Ideal for

Companies with no formal policies yet, or ones with outdated policies that don't match reality.
