If the phrase “information security policy document example” sounds like something only a compliance consultant could love… we’re here to change your mind.In this episode of Cash in the Cyber Sheets, we take a hands-on walkthrough of a real, downloadable information security policy document sample — the GOV domain sample from our Written Information Security Plan (WISP). This is the exact format and structure we use to help small and mid-sized businesses meet regulatory requirements, close security gaps, and document their programs like pros.So many SMBs and MSPs struggle to turn compliance frameworks into something practical. The GOV domain helps bridge that gap — and in this episode, we explain how you can use it to:Understand and apply common InfoSec terminology (like C.I.A., risk treatment, and stakeholder matrices)Align your policies with regulations like the FTC Safeguards Rule, GLBA, and ISO 27001Assign clear roles and responsibilities (yes, we break down who does what and why it matters)Plan internal audits, board reviews, and executive reporting with confidenceEnsure version control, scope, and applicability are clearly defined and maintainedCommunicate your security commitment across your organization and to external stakeholdersWe don’t just read you the policy — we explain what each section is for, how to use it, and why it helps you get compliant faster with less guesswork. If you’re an MSP helping clients get compliant, or a business owner trying to avoid regulatory pain, this episode gives you a real-world guide to doing it right.🧩 Why this matters: Using a strong, editable IT policy template saves time, reduces risk, and ensures you're not starting from a blank screen (or worse, a half-baked internet copy-paste). The GOV domain forms the strategic foundation of your InfoSec program and makes it easy to layer in the remaining domains later.🧰 Download the editable GOV domain information technology security policy template (Word + PDF): 👉 https://www.inputoutput.com/Information-Technology-Security-Policy-Template-Download  📘 Want the deep dive?
