Closed edhamiltonHO closed 1 year ago

edhamiltonHO commented 1 year ago

What is the standard you are suggesting? A combined standard stating expectations for encryption of data in transit or at rest. In the main this will point people to the Home Office Cyber Security (HOCS) policies and standards

What would be the benefit to the Home Office of adopting this standard? This will ensure that all teams conform to the required standards for encryption dependent on their use case

How might people follow it Teams will need to ensure that they have sight of HOCS standards and are engaged with HOCS representatives as necessary
