Some strengths of policy management:
– Having the support of security, corporate risk and security groups for interpretation of legislation and related best practices
– Having the support of HR for policy management, learning and resource considerations
Some weaknesses that are challenges to policy management:
– Separating policy rules and procedures clearly, especially in terms of what can be consistently enforced
– Asset types where ITAM workflow starts with identification rather than acquisition, causing issues with full-lifecycle policy rule enforcement
– Ensuring no duplication or conflict among policies and their procedures
– Effective communications to all stakeholders
