information transfer by enforcement of a data-transfer policy."
  desc  "Applications, including PostgreSQLs, must prevent unauthorized and
unintended information transfer via shared system resources.

Data used for the development and testing of applications often involves copying
data from production. It is important that specific procedures exist for this
process, to include the conditions under which such transfer may take place, where
the copies may reside, and the rules for ensuring sensitive data are not exposed.

Copies of sensitive data must not be misplaced or left in a temporary location
without the proper controls."
