SCENARIO Matt went into his son's bedroom one evening and found him stretched out on his bed typing on his laptop. "Doing your homework?" Matt asked hopefully. "No," the boy said. "I'm filling out a survey." Matt looked over his son's shoulder at the computer screen. "What kind of survey?" "Let me see," Matt said, and began reading the list of questions his son had already answered. "It's asking your opinions about the government and citizenship. That's a little odd. You're only ten." Matt wondered how the web link to the survey had ended up in his son's email inbox. Thinking the message might have been sent to his son by mistake, he opened it and read it. It had come from an entity called the Leadership Project, and the content and graphics indicated that it was intended for children. As Matt read further, he learned that children who took the survey were automatically registered in a contest to win the first book in a series about famous leaders. To Matt, this clearly seemed like a marketing ploy to solicit goods and services to children. He asked his son if he had been prompted to provide information about himself in order to take the survey. His son told him he had been asked to give his name, address, telephone number, and date of birth, and to answer questions about his favorite games and toys. Matt was concerned. He doubted whether it was legal for the marketer to collect information from his son in this way. Then he noticed several other commercial emails from marketers advertising products for children in his son's inbox, and he decided it was time to report the incident to the proper authorities. Depending on where Matt lives, the marketer could be prosecuted for violating which of the following? Reveal answer details Close answer detailsCorrect answerB

SCENARIO Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION: You are the chief privacy officer at HealthCo, a major hospital in a large U.S. city in state A. HealthCo is a HIPAA-covered entity that provides healthcare services to more than 100,000 patients. A third-party cloud computing service provider, CloudHealth, stores and manages the electronic protected health information (ePHI) of these individuals on behalf of HealthCo. CloudHealth stores the data in state B. As part of HealthCo's business associate agreement (BAA) with CloudHealth, HealthCo requires CloudHealth to implement security measures, including industry-standard encryption practices, to adequately protect the data. However, HealthCo did not perform due diligence on CloudHealth before entering the contract and has not conducted audits of CloudHealth's security measures. A CloudHealth employee has recently become the victim of a phishing attack. When the employee unintentionally clicked on a link from a suspicious email, the PHI of more than 10,000 HealthCo patients was compromised. It has since been published online. The HealthCo cybersecurity team quickly identifies the perpetrator as a known hacker who has launched similar attacks on other hospitals-ones that exposed the PHI of public figures, including celebrities and politicians. During the course of its investigation, HealthCo discovers that CloudHealth has not encrypted the PHI in accordance with the terms of its contract. In addition, CloudHealth has not provided privacy or security training to its employees. Law enforcement has requested that HealthCo provide its investigative report of the breach and a copy of the PHI of the individuals affected. A patient affected by the breach then sues HealthCo, claiming that the company did not adequately protect the individual's ePHI and that he has suffered substantial harm as a result of the exposed data. The patient's attorney has submitted a discovery request for the ePHI exposed in the breach.

SCENARIO Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION: When there was a data breach involving customer personal and financial information at a large retail store, the company's directors were shocked. However, Roberta, a privacy analyst at the company and a victim of identity theft herself, was not. Prior to the breach, she had been working on a privacy program report for the executives. How the company shared and handled data across its organization was a major concern. Her report recommended three main reforms. First, permit access on an as-needed-to-know basis, restricting employees' access to customer information to data relevant to their job responsibilities. Second, create a highly secure database for storing customers' financial information, such as credit card and bank account numbers, separate from less sensitive information. Third, identify outdated customer information and develop a process for securely disposing of it. When the breach occurred, the company's executives called Roberta to a meeting, where she presented the recommendations in her report. She explained that because the company had a national customer base, it was required to comply with all applicable state breach notification laws. As a result of Roberta's guidance, the company was able to notify customers promptly and within the timeframes required by state breach notification laws. Soon after, the executives approved the changes to the privacy program that Roberta had recommended. Based on the problems with the company's privacy and security practices that Roberta identified, what is the most likely cause of the breach? Reveal answer details Close answer detailsCorrect answerA
