!!! Overview
A policy is simply, An official or prescribed plan or course of action.

* Conditions change and policies must also change accordingly. Hence, a [{$pagename}] must strike reasonable balance between stability and flexibility.
* Different policies in the [Organizational Entity] should not pull in different directions and should support one another.
* Policies should not be detrimental to the interests of society.
* Policies should be periodically reviewed in order to see whether they are to be modified, changed or completely abandoned.

* [Policy Administration Point]
May reside within the same [application] of the same host.
