Categorization identifies sensitive data so that confidentiality protections commensurate with impact level are selected and documented.
Encrypting or otherwise protecting data at rest directly prevents unauthorized actors from reading sensitive information stored on disk or other media.
Fragmentation across systems ensures that exposure from any single component yields only incomplete information, directly reducing the impact of unauthorized disclosure.
OPSEC controls directly protect supply chain information from unauthorized observation or disclosure.
