An authorized source for derivative classification is any official document or information that has been classified by an original classification authority, and which provides the basis for deriving new classified information. This includes previously classified documents, reports, and other materials that contain sensitive data.

Examples include classified reports, intelligence assessments, and government publications that provide the necessary context for classification.
