Clean Desk Policy

1. Overview
a. The purpose for this policy is to establish a culture of security and trust
for all employees at Corsidian Brasil. An effective clean desk effort
involving the participation and support of all Corsidian Brasil
employees can greatly protect paper documents that contain sensitive
information about our clients, customers and vendors. All employees
should familiarize themselves with the guidelines of this policy.
2. Purpose
a. The main reasons for a clean desk policy are:
i. A clean desk can produce a positive image when our customers
visit the company.
ii. It reduces the threat of a security incident as confidential
information will be locked away when unattended.
iii. Sensitive documents left in the open can be stolen by a
malicious entity.
3. Responsibility
a. All staff, employees and entities working on behalf of Corsidian Brasil
are subject to this policy
4. Scope
a. At known extended periods away from your desk, such as a lunch
break, sensitive working papers are expected to be placed in locked
drawers.
b. At the end of the working day the employee is expected to tidy their
desk and to put away all office papers. Corsidian Brasil provides
locking desks and filing cabinets for this purpose.
5. Action
a. Allocate time in your calendar to clear away your paperwork.
b. Always clear your workspace before leaving for longer periods of
time.
c. If in doubt - throw it out. If you are unsure of whether a duplicate
piece of sensitive documentation should be kept - it will probably be
better to place it in the shred bin.
d. Consider scanning paper items and filing them electronically in your
workstation.
e. Use the recycling bins for sensitive documents when they are no
longer needed.
f. Lock your desk and filing cabinets at the end of the day
g. Lock away portable computing devices such as laptops or PDA
devices
h. Treat mass storage devices such as CDROM, DVD or USB drives as
sensitive and secure them in a locked drawer
6. Enforcement
a. Any employee found to have violated this policy may be subject to
disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.
7. Revision History
a. Policy is in effect on <date>
b. Document revised on <date>
