    Study Notes

    Component 1: Processes, Rules and Protocols in EIS

    • EIS comprises standard processes that organizations repeat to maintain efficiency and effectiveness.
    • Processes include various organizational functions, such as manufacturing, sales, and employee onboarding.

    Rules in EIS

    • Definition: Rules are broad principles guiding employee decision-making within processes.
    • Typical Rules:
      • Password Policies: Enforce complex passwords changed every 90 days; may require a combination of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters; restrict reuse of the last five passwords.
      • Access Control: Limits access based on job roles; employees access only data relevant to their functions.
      • Data Handling: Mandates encryption for sensitive data during transit and at rest.
      • Acceptable Use: Restricts personal internet use during work hours; specifies business-only use of company emails and bans unauthorized software installations.
      • Incident Reporting: Requires prompt reporting within an hour of any suspected data breach to IT.

    Protocols in EIS

    • Definition: Protocols are specific steps detailing how to communicate or interact within the system.
    • Typical Protocols:
      • Data Backup and Recovery: Involves nightly full backups and quarterly restoration tests to ensure data recovery can occur within set timeframes.
      • Software Development and Deployment: Outlines steps for code review, testing phases (unit, integration, and user acceptance), and deployment processes.
      • Incident Response: Details steps for detecting and responding to security issues, often using automated tools for monitoring.
      • Data Handling and Protection: Specifies secure methods for transferring sensitive data and procedures for data deletion.
      • Communication: Designates tools for both internal and external communication, emphasizing security measures for sensitive information.

    Relationship Between Rules and Protocols

    • Rules and protocols are complementary; rules define what actions are permissible while protocols explain how to perform those actions safely and efficiently.

    Scope of Rules and Protocols in EIS

    • Organizations must subjectively determine which rules and protocols are essential for their EIS.
    • All rules and protocols directly affecting digital operations are considered part of the organization's EIS.
