Data Security - Confidentiality

Confidentiality (C) means being able to define information into different classifications
and protect it according to the classifications defined.


  • Class 1 - Internal ( can only be viewed by staff of the company and not public)
  • Class 2 - Confidential (can only be viewed by a selected number of staff only)
  • Class 3 - Strictly Confidential( can only be viewed by an even smaller group of staff)

Ideally, Class 2 & Class3 Information need to be encrypted whether it be files on
a server or attatchments in email.

2 products worth mentioning are :

PHP Code encryption

Advance File Encryption
