turvakäytännön

Turvakäytäntö is a Finnish term that translates to "security policy" or "safety policy" in English. It refers to a set of rules, guidelines, and procedures established by an organization or entity to ensure the safety and security of its assets, personnel, information, and operations.

A turvakäytäntö typically outlines the measures to be taken to prevent threats, manage risks, and respond to security incidents. These policies can encompass a wide range of areas, including physical security, information security, personnel security, and operational security. For example, a physical security policy might detail access control procedures, surveillance systems, and emergency evacuation plans. An information security policy would address data protection, password management, and cybersecurity measures.

The purpose of a turvakäytäntö is to create a secure environment, protect against potential harm or loss, and ensure compliance with relevant laws and regulations. It serves as a framework for decision-making regarding security matters and helps to raise awareness among individuals about their security responsibilities. Regular review and updates of the turvakäytäntö are crucial to adapt to evolving threats and technological advancements. Implementation often involves training personnel on the policy's requirements and establishing mechanisms for monitoring compliance and addressing violations.
