Question 320

During an organizational privacy control review, the following issue arises: A long-running outsourced analytics team changes its processing tool mid-contract. What verification outcome is MOST relevant to demonstrating success? Choose ONE.

  1. Contract and technical actions are tracked with clear accountability
  2. The project shows distinct responsible and accountable participants
  3. Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow
  4. The director requests the right controls before contract execution

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow is the best observable verification result. The governing consideration is: Third-party workers can create privacy exposure even without permanent employee status.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Contract and technical actions are tracked with clear accountability concerns Incident functional accountability and handoffs, but is not the most directly responsive observable verification result. The best selection is: Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow. The differentiating privacy consideration is: Third-party workers can create privacy exposure even without permanent employee status. The case should be checked through this outcome: Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow.

B:

The project shows distinct responsible and accountable participants concerns RACI assignment for privacy program stakeholders, but is not the most directly responsive observable verification result. The best selection is: Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow. The differentiating privacy consideration is: Third-party workers can create privacy exposure even without permanent employee status. The case should be checked through this outcome: Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow.

D:

The director requests the right controls before contract execution concerns Executive and manager privacy awareness, but is not the most directly responsive observable verification result. The best selection is: Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow. The differentiating privacy consideration is: Third-party workers can create privacy exposure even without permanent employee status. The case should be checked through this outcome: Workers acknowledge the updated procedure before using the new workflow.

Question 321

A privacy program manager faces this situation: A retail loyalty platform sends purchase histories to analytics and email delivery systems. Which management decision MOST directly addresses the requirement? Select ONE best answer.

  1. Evaluate personal-data risks in cloud configurations, application access and service integrations
