Template Disclaimer

A financial institution may use a policy template, but it nevertheless remains responsible to determine the suitability of generic policies in meeting regulatory guidelines and mitigating security risks for their institution as is determined through risk assessment. A policy template cannot replace a comprehensive risk assessment but it can provide a framework upon which an institution may delete and expand policies as required for minimizing information security risks.
