Exam Essentials

Know what data classification is. Data classification is the organization of data into different tiers or categories for the purpose of making data available as required and to meet regulatory requirements, mitigate and manage risk, and secure data. Data can be organized into any defined category and managed according to that category’s needs. Metadata is data that is attached to a file and can be thought of as a tag that explains, categorizes, or classifies that data. Metadata allows the data to be tracked as a group and be searched and can reduce duplication of like data that can help reduce or even eliminate storage requirements.

Understand segmentation of cloud resources. Cloud segmentation is the process of dividing your cloud deployment into sections to allow for granular security polices to be applied. By applying segmentation to your cloud deployment, you can implement a multilayered security approach that aligns with a defense-at-depth security model.
