Data Classification & Labelling
Identify and label information so its sensitivity and handling needs are clear.
Overview
When sensitive information sits alongside routine data, teams may use terms such as confidential or restricted differently. Users then lack a clear indication of how content may be stored or shared, while protection controls cannot readily distinguish sensitive content. This often becomes more pressing when new protection controls need a consistent way to identify it.
The solution defines clear, usable classification categories, identifies information requiring classification, and applies labels with handling guidance. As information is created, changed and shared, labels indicate sensitivity or handling needs. This reduces locally defined labels, unstructured descriptions and broad protection rules that disregard data sensitivity.
