In order to ensure that the same protection is afforded to Lincolnshire Police data once it has been disclosed to a partner agency, the partner organisation should handle, store and delete police data according to the Government Security Classifications. The table below provides further guidance on the GSC. Organisations that already have security procedures in place that afford data the same protection as the GSC controls should apply the same regulations to data disclosed by Lincolnshire Police or any other partner organisation. Transmitting information securely When sharing information both the sender and the receiver should deal with the information according to its protective marking. See Government Security Classifications table below for handling requirements in line with information classification. Any e-mail or attachment containing personal data must be sent via a secure encrypted e-mail system. Where the partner does not have access to a secure encrypted e-mail system, the information must be encrypted via some other means, such as Windows password encryption, and the password sent via other means, such as telephone.
