Vantage Recruitment's jumble of brochures, CVs, references, offer letters and passport scans, once all treated the same, sorted onto four shelves by how much harm a leak would cause: open (brochures, job ads), internal (ordinary work notes, staff only), sensitive (CVs, references, offer letters, locked and need-to-know) and locked tight (passport scans and bank details, encrypted), each with a stronger lock; beside them the everyday exits to watch — an email to the wrong address, a USB stick left on a train, an upload to a personal cloud, a printout left on the tray — and if it leaks: spot, contain, tell, learn.

The Tiers — Protecting Data by How Sensitive It Is

A gentle, practical guide to the plainest idea in data protection: not all data is equal, so sort it by how sensitive it is and protect each level accordingly. Sort it into a few tiers, label it, guard the precious more (locks and encryption), watch the exits where data leaks, and act fast if it does.

What you'll learn

  • See that not all data is equal, judge each piece by the harm a leak would cause, and sort your data into a few plain levels.
  • Label data with its level, guard the precious more (limit access and encrypt, especially at rest), and give the trivial a light touch.
  • Watch the everyday exits where data leaks (email, USB, uploads, printouts), and act fast if it does — spot, contain, tell, learn.
  • See through 'lock it all the same' (too tight) and 'it's just data' (too loose) — protecting data in proportion to its sensitivity.
