Introducing restricted classification terms for governed classification in Amazon SageMaker Catalog

AWS has introduced restricted classification terms in Amazon SageMaker Catalog to enhance data governance and compliance for organizations.

• Enables domain administrators to define and control sensitive metadata terms
• Allows only authorized users to apply specific governance-sensitive classifications
• Supports industries like healthcare and financial services with terms like PHI and PCI
• Maintains asset discoverability while preventing unauthorized term assignments
• Enables automatic access workflows based on restricted term classifications

The feature provides a balance between open cataloging and precise governance, helping organizations maintain compliance and data security at scale.
