kind of learning session: Holistic
learning objectives: To know the essential elements of a security strategy and plan as useful in organising and underpinning our security.
methodology: Methodology == Input/Activity: Basic security plan (50 minutes) == '''Step 1 Input.''' Now that we have analysed the threats we face in our work, we will make a simple security plan to correspond to one of our activities (ideally, the one we used as a basis for the threat analysis exercise), and present it to another participant. The objective of our activity and the threats associated with it are the basic starting point for planning. For each threat identified, it's useful to consider two corresponding things: 1. Our existing security practices and capacities: the well-being, attitudes, knowledge, skills and resources to which we have access which help to keep us safer from a particular threat. 2. The gaps in our existing practices, and our vulnerabilities: the well-being, attitudes, knowledge, skills and resources (or lack thereof) which make us more susceptible to a threat. '''Step 2 Input.''' Security plans can be written or unwritten – it depends largely on the culture of the group or organisation. However, it's good to keep in mind that each plan should include as a minimum the following: the objective of the activity; the threats identified; prevention actions and resources; response/Emergency actions and resources; including: WHEN is it an emergency?; Communication and devices; well-being and self-care. Using this as a guide, create a security plan for one activity you carry out in your work. Use the threats you identified as the basis for the tactics and tools you will use It doesn't all have to be new: Include your already existing strategies and capacities. '''Step 3.''' Give participants 20 minutes to draft a plan, and then 15 minutes to present their plan to a fellow participant. Discussion: Pose the following questions to the group: How do you know the tactics you are using are the right ones? Where does the plan fall short? What are the things you can not yet protect yourself against? Are there any new skills, tools, or tactics you will need to learn…
