How Executives Can Use the Guide

Do you have an IT Service Provider?

1. Ask your service provider if they meet SecureTheVillage’s Guide?
2. Only consider service providers that declare they meet the Guide.
3. If your service provider won’t meet the code, consider replacing them.

What if you manage an in-house IT group?

1. Ask them to implement the SecureTheVillage Guide of Basic IT Security Management Practices.

Why it’s important that you do this.

1. You need your IT organization to properly secure your IT network.
2. An IT organization who commits to SecureTheVillage’s Guide of Basic IT Security Management Practices is promising to implement basic information security practices.
3. An organization who won’t commit to following these basic practices will leave you seriously at risk.
