Updated: Updated (April 2014) Security Policy Framework published; 'Understanding the Security Policy Framework' removed as it related to the old version of the Framework.
The Security Policy Framework (SPF) describes the standards, best practice guidelines and approaches that are required to protect UK government assets (people, information and infrastructure).
It focuses on the outcomes that are required to achieve a proportionate and risk managed approach to security that enables government business to function effectively, safely and securely.
