Sensitive applies to information that requires special
precautions to assure the integrity of the information, by
protecting it from unauthorized modification or deletion,
hence, encryption parameters should be classified as
sensitive. Confidential applies to the most sensitive
business information that is intended strictly for use
within an organization. Critical applies to information that
is an important to the organization's business objectives.
Private applies to personal information that is intended for
use within an organization.
