Data Classification Standard

Abstract

This University of Texas at Austin Data Classification Standard serves as a supplement to the IT Security Operations Manual, which was drafted in response to Texas Administrative Code 202 and UT System UTS-165. Adherence to the standard will facilitate applying the appropriate security controls to university data.

The objective of this standard is to assist data stewards, IT owners and custodians in the assessment of information systems to determine what level of security is required to protect data on the systems for which they are responsible.
