So the data management policy will discuss labeling, and this will reflect all relevant attributes of the data that should be indicated to ensure that all accessing the object, understand the characteristics and therefore, the constraints and rules. The labels should include some elements that describe the sensitivity. And these would be terms of impact if exposed or regulatory obligations have not been met and the regulatory obligations for the protection of this asset. And these would be used to assign or deny access to the subject seeking access.
We have to be sure that we have clear definition of impact. This is typically defined in terms of adverse consequences if the data is compromised in any way. This would include the loss of integrity, unauthorized disclosure, or breach and non-availability. And the typical way that we measure this and report this within the data policies, rules is the financial impact, potential regulatory failures, and increasingly the reputational damage that our entity might suffer if it becomes public knowledge.
