A multinational corporation is planning a big data initiative to help with critical business decisions. Which of the following is the BEST way to ensure personal data usage is standardized across the entire organization?
Correct Answer: B
Explanation A data dictionary is a document that defines and describes the data elements, attributes, formats, sources, destinations, purposes and relationships of a data set or system. A data dictionary would be the best way to ensure personal data usage is standardized across the entire organization, as it would provide a common and consistent understanding and reference for how personal data is collected, used, disclosed and transferred within and outside the organization. A data dictionary would also help to ensure compliance with privacy principles, such as accuracy, transparency and accountability. The other options are not as effective as developing a data dictionary in ensuring personal data usage is standardized across the entire organization. De-identify all data is a technique that removes or modifies direct and indirect identifiers in a data set to prevent or limit the identification of the data subjects, but it does not ensure standardization or consistency of personal data usage across the organization. Encrypt all sensitive data is a technique that transforms plain text data into cipher text using an algorithm and a key, making it unreadable by unauthorized parties, but it does not ensure standardization or consistency of personal data usage across the organization. Perform data discovery is a process of identifying and locating personal data within an organization's systems, databases, applications or files, but it does not ensure standardization or consistency of personal data usage across the organization1, p. 69-70 References: 1: CDPSE Review Manual (Digital Version)
Question 17
The BEST way for a multinational organization to ensure the comprehensiveness of its data privacy policy is to perform an annual review of changes to privacy regulations in.
Correct Answer: B
Explanation A multinational organization that operates across different countries and regions should perform an annual review of changes to privacy regulations in all jurisdictions where its corporate data is processed. This is because different jurisdictions may have different privacy laws and requirements that apply to the collection, use, storage, transfer, and disposal of personal data. For example, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to any organization that processes personal data of individuals in the EU, regardless of where the organization is located or where the data is processed. Therefore, the organization should keep track of the changes to privacy regulations in all relevant jurisdictions and update its data privacy policy accordingly to ensure compliance and avoid penalties or lawsuits.
Question 18
Which of the following helps define data retention time is a stream-fed data lake that includes personal data?
Correct Answer: B
Explanation A privacy impact assessment (PIA) is a systematic process of identifying and evaluating the potential privacy risks and impacts of a data processing activity or system. A PIA helps to ensure that privacy is considered and integrated into the design and development of data processing activities or systems, and that privacy risks are mitigated or eliminated. A PIA also helps to determine the appropriate retention periods for personal data based on the purpose and necessity of the data processing, as well as the legal and regulatory obligations that apply to the data. Therefore, a PIA helps to define data retention time in a stream-fed data lake that includes personal data. References: : CDPSE Review Manual (Digital Version), page 99
