Document background
The Email Security Policy serves as a critical governance document for organizations operating in Denmark, establishing mandatory guidelines for secure email communications and data protection. This document becomes necessary as organizations face increasing cyber security threats and stringent regulatory requirements, particularly under Danish data protection laws and GDPR. The policy addresses crucial aspects such as data privacy, security protocols, acceptable use guidelines, and incident response procedures. It is designed to protect sensitive information, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain the integrity of electronic communications while providing clear guidance to all users of the organization's email systems. The Email Security Policy is particularly important given Denmark's strong emphasis on data protection and the need for organizations to demonstrate compliance with both local and EU regulations.
