[rt-users] RTIR and confidential incidents

Hello Mailinglist,

i was wandering if anybody had the requirement to implement an RTIR where the client should have the possibility to define incidents as confidentially (which have, for example, sensitiv logs attached). 

My requirement is that such an incidents and it's associated reports are only able to be accessed by persons personally added by the head of Investigation, to keep the exposure on an minimum level.

Any ideas how this could be implemented? i searched the wiki but there's not much going on for RTIR, any points and hints would be greatly appreciated. 

thanks
