What term refers to the process of assigning categories to data based on its level of sensitivity and the impact to the organization if that data is disclosed or compromised?
Data classification is the systematic approach used to categorize data by its level of sensitivity. This process helps organizations to apply appropriate security measures based on potential risk. In contrast, terms like 'data mapping' or 'data coding' do not encapsulate this concept, as they pertain to organizing or translating data rather than assessing its sensitivity levels.
