Abstract
A method for providing secure document management includes receiving a document from a user having an associated security access profile and generating a security label to be stored as an attribute of the document. The security label includes a clearance component selected from an authorized subset of clearance components that are determined based on the security access profile associated with the user, and also includes one or more secondary security components selected from an authorized subset of secondary security components that are determined based on the clearance component of the security label and the security access profile associated with the user. The method includes storing the document in a document repository storing a plurality of documents each having an associated security label, and determining whether a third-party user is authorized to access the document based on a comparison of a security access profile of the third-party user and the security label associated with the document.
