Abstract:
In order to counteract the growing number and sophisticated nature of cyber threats, having up-to-date information on vulnerabilities, attacks, threats, countermeasures and risks is crucial. Equally important are the data and information we hold and their importance to our organization. Information classification is a process in which organizations and states evaluate the data they hold and the level of protection they should provide. Organizations usually classify information in terms of confidentiality - that is, who is allowed access to view it.
