Managing Project Security

The final design consideration is project security. The Manhattan Project (which built the first atomic bomb) represents one end of the security spectrum. At the other end of the spectrum is, say, a project to plan the company picnic. Somewhere in between are projects that determine the feasibility of acquiring another firm, selling a manufacturing facility, or launching a new product line. Before you can manage project security, you need to know how secure the project must be. You probably won’t need to purchase retina-scanning equipment to secure access to the company picnic project files, for example.

Include a statement about security in the project design, even if the statement is just “Discuss this project with anyone you wish.” The statement should clearly delineate which project information is confidential, and who is entitled to access or discuss confidential information or files. You may want to have project staff sign a nondisclosure agreement, indicating that they have read the security statement and understand it. You can attach the agreements and any other files to the Project file you create.
