Hello all! Can anyone give me some advice on creating a security guidebook.
I've been asked to create this guide based off what we monitor and how. Are
there best practices for creating a guide; what should or should not be
included; etc. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Start by thinking about the purpose of your guidebook, who the audience =
is, and what you want them to do with it. For instance, the first =
question to answer is this: will your book enumerate security policies, =
which describe what's expected and why, or will it cover processes and =
procedures, which describe how you implement your security requirements =
and policies?
