*'''Secret''' - Secret information is information that could harm the Federation if given out to enemies, used improperly or poses an risk to Federation civilians. This information is restricted to specific personnel - and typically, are read into the program. (Example: the physicals of how the Quantum Slipstream Drive integrates into Starfleet Deflectors. The history of how we acquired the QSD is also more than likely still classified as Secret by Starfleet Command. Essentially, any post 2380's technology Voyager produced would be rated Secret as how it works and where it was acquired.). There are several times where characters will generate Secret information - but think twice about applying this. Secret classification should be used sparingly. <font color=red>'''Any temporal incident not released by the DTI or obviously cannot be classified should be considered Secret'''</font> | *'''Secret''' - Secret information is information that could harm the Federation if given out to enemies, used improperly or poses an risk to Federation civilians.

*'''Top Secret''' - Top Secret information is information that will harm the Federation's interests. Generally, Top Secret is subdivided into special access programs. A blank Top Secret clearance would let you know certain programs exist but wouldn't tell you anything about them. People are read into Top Secret programs only as required. <font color=red>''' | *'''Top Secret''' - Top Secret information is information that will harm the Federation's interests.

People are read into Top Secret programs only as required. An important note is that there are several Top Secret programs that even someone with a Top Secret clearance would know. Just because you have the clearance doesn't mean that many people would know all that is under this classification. <font color=red>'''Generally, not even the CO will know it. An example is the Omega Protocol, which not even COs of ships know. This is a very need to know basis. '''</font> | ||
*'''Most Secret''' - | *'''Most Secret''' - A rumored classification, but not one that officially exists. If it DID exist however, Section 31 might fall under it.. (OOC Note: This is also conspiracy theory territory. Please do not use this. It's added just as a thing that is a popular rumour.) | ||
