What is a server security policy?  List at least three areas the policy should address.

A server security policy does not usually cover rank-and-file employees.  Its purpose is to regulate IT staff who have privileged access to company servers. This policy should cover all servers, including Web and database servers. At a minimum, the policy should encompass the following areas:

Names and positions of IT staff who are responsible for operating and maintaining servers
Specific identification for all servers, including serial numbers and part numbers
Username and password security requirements
Configuration details, including hardware and software versions
Monitoring requirements and schedules as well as logging requirements

Policy compliance and enforcement
