Data Encryption Policy

The Data Encryption Policy’s purpose is to define for employees, computer users and IT department staff the encryption requirements to be used on all computer, device, desktop, laptop, server, network storage and storage area network disks, and drives that access or store organization information to prevent unauthorized access to organization communications, email, records, files, databases, application data and other material.

This policy from TechRepublic Premium can be customized as needed to fit the needs of your organization.

From the policy:

All employees and users accessing organization applications, files, records, networks or systems using Android and iOS devices must enable encryption on Android devices and the use of a complex passcode and subsequent encryption on iOS devices. The Android and iOS encryption requirements apply to and include personal smartphones not owned or provided by the organization connected at any time to organization’s information, applications, networks or systems, including email.

The download includes a PDF and Word document.
