BS 10010 – Information classification, marking and handling. Specification

BS 10010:2017 specifies requirements for the creation, implementation, evaluation andimprovement of Information Classification, Marking and Handling (ICMH) systems. It specifiesrequirements for classifying information, including defining how it may be accessed by users, bothinside and outside the organization, that own the information.

The intended users of this British Standard include, but are by no means limited to, the following:

a) organizations of any size that create, store, process and/or share information;
b) individuals who create, store, process and/or share information;
c) individuals with responsibilities for records management, document management, informationgovernance and management, information security, data protection and/or privacy; and
d) organizations that create, provide or support tools that enable a) to c).

The scope of this British Standard addresses information that is in a form that can be understood byhumans and is capable of being shared. Throughout this British Standard such information is referredto as an ‘Information Asset’ regardless of its media or format.

NOTE 1 Information Assets can include structured information, unstructured information, text, pictures and audiorecordings, i.e. anything that contains information.

NOTE 2 The content of databases do not as easily fit within the marking aspects of this British Standard. However,information in whatever form that is derived from a database and turned into a tangible asset is included withinthis British Standard, as is information that is not originally derived from a database.
