Identity: How do you identify the users affected by the policy? Trust: Under what conditions is a user allowed to perform an action? Enforceability: How will the policys implementation be verified? Risk assessment: What is the impact of a policy violation? How are violations detected? Incident response: What actions are required upon a violation of the security policy?

ARCH v Summary Networks are vulnerable to a variety of threats that can be classified as loss of privacy, data theft, impersonation, and loss of integrity. Network security efforts are based on a security policy. The policy should contain information about what is being protected, how users are identified and trusted, how the policy is to be enforced, the consequences of a violation, and the response to a violation. The ongoing steps of a security policy include securing the network, monitoring network security, testing security, and improving security. A risk assessment identifies risks to your network, network resources, and data. The risk assessment helps determine the validity of a network security implementation and should be performed periodically.
