7 IT Policies Every Organisation Should Have

Most cyber incidents don’t start with a sophisticated hack. They start with someone on your team not being sure what’s safe and what isn’t. A weak password, a file saved to a personal laptop, a login on public WiFi.

Written IT policies close that gap. They give your team clear rules for passwords, devices, cloud tools, WiFi, social media and AI – so nobody has to guess.

The 7 IT Policies Covered in This Guide

This free guide covers the following 7 IT policies every business should have in place…

  • Password security
  • Acceptable use
  • Cloud and app use
  • Personal devices
  • WiFi use
  • Social media
  • AI

Each one is explained in plain English – what it covers, why it matters, and what to include. If you’re preparing for Cyber Essentials, several of these are required anyway.

We’re Cyber Essentials Plus and B Corp certified, so we hold ourselves to the same standards we’re recommending here.
