Security classifications allow us to apply additional security on top of standard access control lists.
Users are given the right to see one or more security classifications.
Data and content may also have one or more security classifications applied.
For a user to have access they must have access via the standard access control list, but they must also have all the security classifications that appear on the data or content.
This example shows a user with the ‘secret’ classifications and a corresponding document with the protective classification ‘secret'.
