BS10010:2017 is a specification for information classification, marking, and handling (ICMH) schemes. This British standard provides guidelines for the management of records, particularly focusing on the effective control, maintenance, and disposal of information in an organization. This standard provides a structured framework for managing records throughout their lifecycle, helping organizations meet legal, regulatory, and business requirements. It’s especially valuable for those concerned about the sensitivity of the information they create, use, and share.
This standard can help organizations:
- Achieve strategic objectives and strengthen risk management
- Comply with legal, regulatory, and industry standards
- Secure, protect, and share sensitive information appropriately
- Enhance user awareness of data value and proper handling practices
