Abstract
A method of classifying spreadsheet files managed within a spreadsheet risk reconnaissance network, comprising the steps of assigning a spreadsheet manager to a group of spreadsheet directories in an user organization. The spreadsheet manager logs-on to the network, and determines whether or not there are spreadsheet files to classify. If there are no spreadsheet files to classify, then the spreadsheet manager ends the process. If there are spreadsheet files to classify, then the spreadsheet manager assigns values for criticality, confidentiality and impact to the spreadsheet files. The spreadsheet manager assigns a spreadsheet inspector to each classified spreadsheet file, and the network generates email to notify the spreadsheet inspector of a spreadsheet inspection request.
