Sensitivity label: A tag or identifier assigned to data that indicates its level of sensitivity and dictates how it should be handled, distributed, and stored. These labels, such as ‘confidential’, ‘public’, ‘internal’, or ‘top secret’, enable organizations to classify data based on its value or potential impact if compromised. Implementing sensitivity labels helps ensure the appropriate level of security and access controls are applied, facilitating compliance with privacy and data protection regulations.
