<paragraph id="par_id030820161744119967" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">Document classification and security is an important issue for businesses and governments.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="par_id030820161744113553" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">Information is exchanged between users and organizations that collaborate to pursue a business goal. Where sensitive information is involved, it is assumed that the parties will have agreed what information is sensitive and how such information will be identified and handled. Any recipient of a resource will rely upon the provider of the information to follow the agreed procedures to identify the sensitivity of the information.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="par_id030820161744118823" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">%PRODUCTNAME provides standardized means for such sensitivity information to be expressed and may be used between parties if interoperable systems are to be implemented. It provides a set of standard “fields” that can be used to hold sensitivity information. It does not attempt to define what the contents of these “fields” should be. This approach is an improvement upon the only alternative that exists at the moment, which is for the provider to use an arbitrary means to express sensitivity that may not be useful to a recipient.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="par_id030820161744121143" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">While this standard has been developed with the intent that it would be applicable in any domain of activity, %PRODUCTNAME retained the aerospace and defense industry nomenclature and categories, where sensitivity marking results from national security, export control and intellectual property policies.</paragraph>
