GLOSSARY

Data Classification

Data Classification

Data classification is the process of organizing and categorizing data into relevant groups or classes based on predefined criteria, such as sensitivity, regulatory requirements, or business value. This process helps organizations identify, label, and apply appropriate security controls and handling procedures to different types of data, ensuring that sensitive information is adequately protected while enabling easier retrieval, storage, and utilization of non-sensitive data.
