Information Sensitivity - Sensitivity Indicator in The USA

Sensitivity Indicator in The USA

In the intelligence community the sensitivity indicator (aka. sensitivity label) specifies the level of secrecy of a project, document or piece of information by its relevancy to national security. Only those with appropriate security clearance can access information of certain sensitivity and might face additional special access restrictions.

The indicator can also be the name of a classified project such as "Project Blue Book" or "Ultra", further restricting access to or handling of information.
