INTRA/DP/DP002Information classification scheme
The categories information is assigned to, the handling rules that follow from each, and what happens to information nobody has assigned. The default is part of the scheme: a category that only the careful apply leaves everything else outside it.
| Control | Jurisdiction | Source | What it establishes | Prerequisite or recommendation |

A document carrying the right level can then be followed by the loss prevention tooling, and access to it that was not permitted is raised as an incident. |
