WIP: Information Security Standards Document

Why is this change being made?

As we are building out our Governance Program, we also need to have Information Security Standards which will enforce the requirements and align with our IT Security Policies, to help implement Information Security across GitLab and protect the organization’s data and other valuable assets, keeping our environment secure.

These standards will help with solidifying our position as a company to allow for more efficient coordination among GitLab teams and streamlined processes.

Information Security Standards are also mandated by various regulatory frameworks such as ISO, SOC2, FedRamp and also mandated by many of our customers.
