Sensitive Security Information

Sensitive security information (sometimes called SSI) is information that needs to be kept safe and private. It is important because it helps to protect people and important places. Think of it like this: If a bad person had access to sensitive security information, they could use it to hurt people or damage things. So, it is very important to keep this kind of information away from bad people and make sure only good people can access it. That way, we can all stay safe.
