Comply with Government Security (DCS) Classifications Policy

The UK Government Security Classifications (GSC) policy requires that all UK government organizations classify their information assets into one of three types: OFFICIAL, SECRET and TOP SECRET. This simplified classification scheme replaces the previous Government Protective Marking Scheme (GPMS), making it easier for government staff, contractors and service providers to safeguard government information. DCS helps UK government organizations comply with the new GSC policy by providing users with an easy way to classify their information assets. In as little as one click, users can apply GSC-compliant classifications and protective markings to email and documents to clearly identify information sensitivity.

As a proven solution that has been deployed to more than 40 UK councils and police forces, Fortra Data Classification Suite (DCS) provides:

  • Full “out-of-the-box” support for the new Government Security Classifications policy
  • The ability to customize classifications and markings including special handling instructions
  • Recommended product configurations to help ensure legal and regulatory compliance
  • Policy enforcement to educate users, reduce the risk of loss, and prevent inappropriate access
