Explanation:
Risk assessment, evaluation and impact analysis will be the starting point for driving management's attention to information security. All other choices will follow the risk assessment.

Explanation
A security policy is a formal statement of the rules and principles that govern the protection of information assets in an organization. A security policy defines the scope, objectives, roles and responsibilities, and standards of the information security program. A primary purpose of creating security policies is to implement management's security governance strategy, which is the framework that guides the direction and alignment of information security with the business goals and objectives. A security policy translates the management's vision and expectations into specific and measurable requirements and controls that can be implemented and enforced by the information security staff and other stakeholders. A security policy also helps to establish the accountability and authority of the information security function and to demonstrate the commitment and support of the senior management for the information security program.

Investments in security technologies should be based on their overall value in relation to their cost; the value can be demonstrated in terms of risk mitigation. This should take precedence over whether they use new or exotic technologies or how they are evaluated in trade publications.
