Data & Information Security Classification

This reference describes the four levels of security classifications that Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) applies to data and information. Classifying data and information is the first step in ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, trustworthiness, availability and protection of privacy of AGLC data and information. These standards are in alignment with the Government of Alberta (GoA) and the Government of Canada’s information security classification scheme.
