Classifying Content and Data in Confluence

Chris works for a Fortune 500 company who are subject to the ISO 27001 standards. They are currently evaluating Confluence to see if this can be their central knowledge base solution.

One of the companies primary requirements is the classification of data relating to its sensitivity. For example, financial records should classified as a restricted document and should only be visible to a subset of company employees. On the other hand, a company policy (e.g. travel policy) would be classified as internal use only and should be visible to all employees.
