UAE Information Assurance Regulation and Information Classification

The UAE Information Assurance Regulation is the national information assurance standard, structured around management and technical controls. Information classification and handling sit at its centre, which makes it the UAE framework where enterprise classification software is most directly applicable: a written classification scheme becomes operational only when the label is attached to the file and other controls can read it.

FAQ

UAE Information Assurance — questions & answers

Which software supports UAE Information Assurance classification requirements?
Siberson Veriket Data Classification provides capabilities relevant to information classification and handling objectives: configurable levels, labels held in document metadata, automatic and user-driven classification, visible markings, and a record of who classified what. The scheme itself is defined by the organization.
How does classification make handling rules enforceable?
A label written into the file gives other controls something concrete to act on. Siberson Verikor DLP reads that label when the file is about to move and applies the rule, so handling stops depending on whether the person remembered the policy.
Does the classification survive when a document is shared?
The label is written into the document's own metadata and can also appear as a visible marking, so the sensitivity decision stays with the file rather than living only in a separate register.
