The core objective of this paper is to analyze the significance of information technology in an organization; nonetheless, the paper discusses the impact of organizational behaviour on the implementation of information technology in corporation.

Non-public data may need to be restricted internally to prevent insider trading, limit its circulation, manage legitimate access, or any number of reasons. Yet classifying data poses some fundamental problems.
