(What is the most probable reason for tagging data as “special” or “sensitive”?

CIPM teaches that data classification enablesappropriate safeguards based on risk. Tagging data as sensitive ensures stricter access controls, enhanced monitoring, and limited use consistent with purpose limitation.

While audits, deletion, and rights processes benefit from classification, the primary objective is tocontrol and protect high-risk data. Classification supports least privilege access and prevents misuse, aligning with security and accountability principles.
