Data Classification

Synopsis
The main purpose of cryptography solutions is to protect the data. How would you know that what you are providing is an over-protection or under-protection? That is why it is important to be able to classify the data. In this assignment, you will be required to research data classification and propose a classification for data within a company.

Research Assignment Instructions
For this assignment, you are required to address the following:

What is the importance of data classification from a security perspective?
Provide an example of an actual company that has its data classified into security levels (confidential, non-confidential, etc.). Make sure to provide the references that you used.
You are hired by a company as a computer security consultant to classify the data within the company. This company works in the health IT domain and has access to patient data along with employee data (among normal data within the company). Provide a classification for the data based on which category should be secure.
Based on your data classification in the previous step, what are the security and cryptography solutions that you will use for each category of classified data?
