Information transfer is the process of moving information from one location to another. Policies and processes are required to protection information during this process.
Any activity involving the movement of information from one place to another carries inherent risk whereby the confidentiality, integrity or availability of that information may be compromised. Appropriate and proportionate steps must be taken to ensure the security requirements of the information being transferred are protected against deliberate or inadvertent, authorised or unauthorised attack, damage or loss.
