Title: Configuration management Policy And Procedures - Creating Policy And Procedures
Ownership: Customer, Microsoft
Description: The organization: Develops, documents, and disseminates to personnel with configuration management roles and responsibilities: A configuration management policy that addresses purpose, scope, roles, responsibilities, management commitment, coordination among organizational entities, and compliance; and Procedures to facilitate the implementation of the configuration management policy and associated configuration management controls; and
Requirements: Azure addresses the configuration management policy as part of the Microsoft security policies, of which there are two sets: the Microsoft Security Policy (MSP) that is applicable to all personnel, and the Microsoft Security Program Policy (MSPP), which is applicable to all personnel that have a responsibility for security. The Microsoft Information Risk Management Council (IRMC) is the governance body with review and approval responsibility for the MSP and MSPP. The MSPP specifically applies to all Azure personnel involved in designing, building, and operating Azure and across all information and processes used in the conduct of Microsoft business. All Azure personnel are accountable and responsible for complying with these guiding principles within their designated roles. The policy addresses the following: * Purpose of providing rules and requirements to applicable personnel * Scope covering properties and services * Roles and responsibilities for those involved with the policy * Management commitment through coordination with security organizations, property security groups, and Microsoft corporate functions * Compliance by requiring all employees to adhere to the policy and applicable standards and follow approved procedures Additionally, the policy addresses the purpose, scope, roles, responsibilities, compliance requirements, and required coordination among the various Microsoft organizations that provide some level of support to all services. The standards indicate Microsoft management’s commitment and are a component of the risk management strategy which provides Azure personnel with a current set of clear and concise information security requirements. Azure implements the configuration management policy and associated controls through the following documents: * Azure Security Baseline Governance SOP * Azure Asset Management SOP * Azure Hardware Change and Release Management SOP * Azure Software Change and Release Management SOP * Azure Networking Configuration Management SOP * Microsoft Change Management Standard * Microsoft Online Services Baseline Security Configuration Document They document the following configuration management procedures: * Change control documentation, maintenance, retention, and approvals * Configuration baselines * Component inventory * Configuration settings * Segregation of duties for change management activities * Asset classification The MSP is available to all Microsoft personnel on the Microsoft Policy website on the Microsoft intranet, and the MSPP and Security Standards are available through the Liquid tool, also on the Microsoft intranet. The Azure SOPs are stored in the Azure Security, Privacy & Compliance SharePoint site. This SharePoint site is accessible to all Azure personnel. Service teams may supplement the Azure policies and procedures with offering-specific policies and procedures. Service-team-specific policies and procedures associated with configuration management are documented and stored within internal Azure SharePoint sites. Only personnel with authorized credentials, adequate levels of permission, legitimate need to know, and specific roles and responsibilities are given access to the service-team-specific policies or procedures.
