records classification

Records classification is the process of organizing and categorizing documents and data based on their importance, sensitivity, and purpose. It helps ensure that information is stored securely, accessed appropriately, and preserved for the right amount of time. By assigning labels or levels—such as confidential, internal use, or public—organizations can maintain control over their records, protect sensitive information, and comply with legal or regulatory requirements. This systematic approach streamlines retrieval, improves efficiency, and supports effective management of information throughout its lifecycle.
