Decision Guide

When to Use

  • Multiple teams are tagging data independently and inconsistently
  • Building ABAC policies that depend on accurate, consistent tags
  • Need mandatory classification before data can be shared
  • Tag values are proliferating (e.g., 'pii', 'PII', 'personal_data' all meaning the same thing)
  • Governance team needs to control the classification taxonomy

When NOT to Use

  • Single small team managing all data
  • Not yet using tags at all
