About the Author
Charles Cresson Wood is an author and independent information security consultant based in Sausalito, California. In the information security field on a full-time basis since 1979, he has worked as an information security management consultant at SRI International (formerly Stanford Research Institute) as well as lead network security consultant at the Bank of America. He has done information security work with over 120 organizations -- many of them Fortune 500 companies -- including a large number of financial institutions and high-tech companies.
He is noted for his ability to integrate competing objectives (like ease-of-use, speed, flexibility and security) in customized and practical compromises that are acceptable to all parties involved. Acknowledging that information security is multi-disciplinary, multi-departmental, and often multi-organizational, he is additionally noted for his ability to synthesize a large number of complex considerations and then to document these in security architectures, system security requirements, risk assessments, project plans, policy statements, and other clear and action-oriented documents.

Free Information Security Policies Made Easy Version 8
Charles Wood has developed a unique approach to address information security policy development, approval, and implementation, with his book Information Security Policies Made Easy. This is a comprehensive text which address's a wide range of information security risks, and IT asset exposures. The book's policy language is easily understood, the content covers the majority of IT operation conditions, and detailed policy recommendations are succintly presented.
The 1175 policies contained in this book are also provided in soft copy on the accompanying CD ROM, making this one of the most valuable resources to companies that need to cost-effectively develop and implement policies. This book is also particularly valuable for consultants, although the licensing appears to restrict the use of the policies if they are used verbatim. However, each of the policies are too generic to be used as is, so for consultants their value if the key elements and discussion of each.
