SB202 Stores documents appropriately for their level of sensitivity

Documents should be stored in a manner that is appropriate for their level of sensitivity. Organisations are likely to provide guidance on what these storage methods are and what type of sensitive information they apply to. This guidance should be followed.


Why is it important?

Storing documents appropriately ensures their protection and ensures that only those with the correct level of approval or clearance have visibility. It may also mean that in a breach, these documents might have additional layers of protection.
