Classification of Personal Information for Privacy Protection Purposes
註釋Laws now in force require that privacy protection be provided to personal information in record-keeping systems maintained by the federal government, and by state and local governments in three states. Other states are expected to enact similar legislation. It is necessary for effective implementation of these requirements to establish a standard sensitivity classification system for personal information such that for each classification level it is known that integrity and security assurance must be provided, what information handling practices must be followed, and what penalties apply for non-compliance. Information items can then be assigned into appropriate categories on the basis of their potential to adversely affect individual data subjects, and on the basis of access and dissemination limitations that may be required by law. One such classification system and a sensitivity scale is proposed in this paper.
