Information Security Policy

"Information security and management is an integral part of IT governance, which in turn is a keystone of corporate governance. Information is an asset, and like other important business assets, it has a value and consequently needs to be suitably protected. A comprehensive information security management system protects information from a wide range of threats in order to ensure business continuity, minimise business damage and maximise return on investments and business opportunities. This is the British Library’s high level Information Security Policy, part of the Library’s
Information Risk Management Framework. The principles described in this policy provide
direction for the more detailed processes, procedures and guidelines that are referenced.
