Martin:

Please see the link below.
We have basically two classifications: data that must be protected, and all other data.
There are minimum sets of controls for systems on our network.
The protected systems have a greater set of controls to meet.

Those of you who have implemented a data or asset classification schema,
do you also have minimum control sets (admin, physical, technical) that
are tied to each category of data?

For example, if the data handled is categorized as "highly sensitive,"
"confidential," or whatever label you've assigned to the data that
presents the highest institutional risk, is there a minimum set of
controls that have to be in place in the offices or business/academic
units that routinely use this type of information?

And if the answer is yes, would mind replying with a reference to those
controls?
