Actually, I have a whole section of links on "Policy" on my site:
http://interactiveinfosec.com/?openMenus=-1+10+60&selectedIndex=66

I'm going to be putting up a bunch of HIPPA information soon as well..

- try a search or surf on www.sans.org
(fro example:
         http://www.sans.org/infosecFAQ/policy/netsec_policy.htm
         http://www.sans.org/infosecFAQ/policy/compliance.htm
...)

- try also: http://www.cerias.purdue.edu/coast/archive/index.html
and select "subject index", and then "security policy" (I can't give
you the direct link, since this is a "no pointing" site!)

- the "Building Internet Firewalls" book has a chapter devoted to this.
You can live without this book, but that would be a mistake:)

One of the simplest policies is:
"allow every outbound access, and deny every inbound access".
but this might not be acceptable (for example: email viruses can
come to you via outbound POP connections, ...).

Note that you need to define your policy in non-technical terms first
(this doesn't mean you shouldn't keep technicalities in mind, but
you should be able to minimize details). and only then describe the
implementation.


cheers,
