Information security policies

I have a question regarding Acceptable Use Policy vs all of the smaller documents (DYOD, Teleworking, cryptographic controls, password policy).

Do I understand correctly that for a smaller company (~30) it is sufficient to have one detailed document in form of the Acceptable Use Policy and then it is not necessary anymore to fill out all the smaller ones as mentioned above? Or do you need both? I feel like they are somewhat redundant.

Thank you very much. Looking forward to your answer to move on quickly.

Answer: You understanding is correct. If a single Use Acceptance Policy can fulfil your needs you do not need to develop other policies.
