RESPONSE 1:

How is classified information different from other sensitive information?

Wow, I cannot believe we are already at week eight. I have to admit, this course was extremely challenging and very rewarding as well.

For classified information, a classification level must be assigned to the certain parcels of information when the information is determined so. The level of class indicates the importance of the information as it relates to National Security. For the sake of National Security, the three classes are “Top Secret” “Secret” and “Confidential”.

A confidential classification level has the lowest threat level towards National Security however, it is still a credible level to which it has been given a level in the first place. It is defined: level given to information that would or could potentially do harm or cause damage to National Security if it was to be disclosed to the wrong or right people, however you look at it.

The next highest classification level is “Secret”. The classification level of SECRET, shall be applied to information that could and would be expected to cause SERIOUS damage to National Security if it was disclosed without authorization to the wrong people.

Lastly, the one that everyone knows about unless you have been living under a rock your entire-life or have never played Call of Duty, TOP SECRET! Top Secret information if leaked or exposed to the wrong people will be an immediate threat to National Security and cause irreparable damage to not only possibly government officials, but to the American population as well.

Let us recap just so we can explain it to our family and friends.

Confidential: information that potentially could be expected to cause damage to National Security.

Secret: Could be expected to cause serious damage to National Security.

Top Secret: Should be expected to cause exceptionally grave damage to National Security.

How does this differ from sensitive information?

Personally identifiable information in the wrong hands can cause someone to potentially empty your bank account or hack into your computer and see your password to Netflix.

Classified information could put the security and well being of every American citizen on this earth in jeopardy.
