Constrained Data Item (CDI): A Constrained Data Item (CDI) is a term from the Clark-Wilson security model, not a general term for data within a secure environment. It refers to any data within a secure environment that is subject to access or handling restrictions based on security policies or regulatory requirements. Proper control and oversight are necessary to ensure that CDs are not improperly altered, disclosed, or destroyed, thereby mitigating potential risks associated with sensitive or classified information.
