Patent attributes
Embodiments of the invention are directed to classifying requests associated with personal data at or before a point of entry to a trusted computing network. The invention provides for determining whether a request associated with personal data requires classification (for example, whether the request is impacted by regulations or other requirements necessitating classification/categorization). The determination may be based on what entity is requesting the data, the origin of the request, whose data is being requested, the type of action associated with the request and/or the data elements associated with the request. In addition, once the request has been determined to require classification the specific classification is determined and assigned to the request. The classification may be determined based on the rules associated with the regulation or other requirement(s) necessitating the classification/categorization. The classification may identify rules for processing the request along with routing for the request.
