Provide more detailed operational security requirements and best practices
Feature request
Description
It would be good to have guidelines and examples on how to deal with physical security protocols (is it a proper English way to say that ?). For instance: you must lock the server room with a key or keep the admin key with you at all time etc.
There should also be recommendations about where, in the newsroom or elsewhere, the servers should be stored. For instance is it good practice to store the SVS in a safe ? Should it be wrapped in a tamper evident bag ? etc.

As an admin responsible for the deployment of SecureDrop I want a checklist to remind me of physical security protocols.
Renaming, rewriting, and expanding this page might be one way to go: https://docs.securedrop.org/en/stable/deployment/minimum_security_requirements.html.
Retitled issue. While we can't be exhaustive, the "minimum security requirements" could indeed be fleshed out and clarified a bit.
We should revisit this once we've done more threat model review. Flagging for @l3th3's attention, but IMO tis blocked for now.
