Clearance levels

Clearance levels refer to the authorization given to individuals to access specific information or areas within an organization or government based on their trustworthiness and need to know. Higher clearance levels grant access to more sensitive or classified materials, such as security details or strategic plans, while lower levels restrict access to less sensitive information. These levels ensure that sensitive data is shared only with authorized personnel, maintaining security and confidentiality. Clearances are granted through background checks and vetting processes, and they help organizations control information flow and protect national or organizational interests.
