Know What Is Sensitive. Protect It Automatically.
Label document classes as PHI, PII, or confidential and let access controls flow from the classification itself. Sensitivity is surfaced clearly throughout the platform so every user understands what they are handling — and the system enforces the rules without anyone needing to remember them.
Most data-protection failures are not caused by malicious intent — they happen when a well-meaning employee shares a document without realising it contains sensitive personal information. Dockria's Sensitivity Labels remove the guesswork by classifying entire document classes as PHI (protected health information), PII (personally identifiable information), or confidential, and then enforcing the consequences automatically.
When a document class is marked as sensitive, access permissions tighten automatically. Only roles explicitly cleared for that classification can view, download, or share documents within the class. Sharing controls become more restrictive. Audit logging is intensified so that every access to sensitive material is captured for review. Administrators no longer have to manually configure protection on every new document — the classification does it for them.
Sensitivity is also surfaced clearly in the user interface. When a user opens a record marked PHI or PII, the classification is visible at a glance, reminding them that the document is subject to additional handling rules. This reduces accidental mishandling and reinforces a culture of data responsibility across the organisation.
Sensitivity Labels are designed to support the data-classification expectations of HIPAA, the Kenya Data Protection Act, GDPR, and other privacy frameworks that require organisations to identify, mark, and apply additional protection to high-risk personal data. For auditors, the label itself becomes evidence that your organisation has identified its sensitive holdings and applied controls proportionate to the risk.
Key Benefits
Class-Level Classification
Mark whole document classes as PHI, PII, or confidential — protection applies automatically to every document in the class.
Automatic Access Restriction
Sensitivity labels tighten permissions automatically, so only cleared roles can view, download, or share the protected documents.
Clearly Surfaced in the UI
Users see the sensitivity classification the moment they open a document, reducing accidental mishandling of personal data.
Aligned to HIPAA, KDPA & GDPR
Supports the data-classification expectations of major privacy frameworks, providing auditors with evidence of proportionate protection.
Industry Use Cases
Hospitals classify clinical records, lab results, and discharge summaries as PHI, ensuring only treating staff can access patient information.
Banks label customer KYC files and account-opening documentation as PII, restricting access to onboarding and compliance personnel only.
Law firms mark privileged client material and witness statements as confidential, isolating them from general staff access.
Public sector agencies classify citizen records and personal correspondence as PII to comply with KDPA obligations on personal data.
