Episode 102 — Plans and Policies: BCP, DRP, BYOD, AUP, Clean Desk, Incident Response, Data Retention, Access Control, and Privacy (5.1)
This episode covers major security plans and policies students are expected to recognize for the Security+ exam. Business continuity plans focus on keeping essential functions operating, while disaster recovery plans focus on restoring systems and data after disruption. BYOD policies define rules for personally owned devices, acceptable use policies explain proper technology behavior, and clean desk policies reduce exposure of sensitive information in physical work areas. Incident response, data classification, retention, access control, disposal, vulnerability disclosure, and privacy policies all define expectations before problems occur. For exam scenarios, students should match the policy or plan to the business need, legal requirement, or operational risk being addressed.
