I FOUND chapter 4 somewhat relevent.
 Naturally it is a copy from somewhere.

Hi Ronish,

Consider the following for building an information asset register
for Risk
assessment
1. Identify the different process / functions and then list assets
under
each process / function
2. Information assets are of different types (Physical, Software,
paper,
people, services, information)
3. Add Owner, Custodian and User tag to each asset
4. Add confidentiality, Integrity and Availability (CIA) to each
asset

This should be enough to initiate Risk Assessment, which will cover
how well
the sensitive data is protected.

Hope this helps,

Best regards,
Santosh

Parker,

Great document, thank you !

To increase the quality of the document, I would use Availability,
Integrity
and Confidentiality to calculate the asset's business impact.

Regards,

Fábio

Hi list,

happy New Year to all of you

Looking for some best practices, reallife recommendations on how to
go about
to build up an Information Asset register, which will basically
contain a
list of information being used within the organisation, where and
how it is
stored, and where it is distributed, e.g. Card Information being
stored on
local hard disk without any encryption

This will be the basis to perform information risk assessments to
mitigate
potential risk issues

Any help on how to proceed, methodology and tools to manage all of
this will
be greatly appreciated

Thanks & regards,
Ronish
