There should be something in the company or ITS policies that detail the
procedure for accepting risk to company information. This write up should
include the following information:

1. The issues
2. The risk
3. The business reason for excepting the risk

Subject: Off Topic: Upper Management decision making

Has anyone here had occasion to face the situation where Upper Management
decides
to move forward in a direction against to the recommendations of the group
responsible for data security disregarding their concerns? If so, what did
you do
about it? Did you write it up and ask them to formally acknowledge their
acceptance of the exposure? What form would this document take? Any
examples?
Bill
