  • Question 213:

    SCENARIO

    It should be the most secure location housing data in all of Europe, if not the world. The Global Finance Data Collective (GFDC) stores financial information and other types of client data from large banks, insurance companies, multinational corporations and governmental agencies. After a long climb on a mountain road that leads only to the facility, you arrive at the security booth. Your credentials are checked and checked again by the guard to visually verify that you are the person pictured on your passport and national identification card. You are led down a long corridor with server rooms on each side, secured by combination locks built into the doors. You climb a flight of stairs and are led into an office that is lighted brilliantly by skylights where the GFDC Director of Security, Dr. Monique Batch, greets you. On the far wall you notice a bank of video screens showing different rooms in the facility. At the far end, several screens show different sections of the road up the mountain

    Dr. Batch explains once again your mission. As a data security auditor and consultant, it is a dream assignment: The GFDC does not want simply adequate controls, but the best and most effective security that current technologies allow.

    "We were hacked twice last year," Dr. Batch says, "and although only a small number of records were stolen, the bad press impacted our business. Our clients count on us to provide security that is nothing short of impenetrable and to do so quietly. We hope to never make the news again." She notes that it is also essential that the facility is in compliance with all relevant security regulations and standards.

    You have been asked to verify compliance as well as to evaluate all current security controls and security measures, including data encryption methods, authentication controls and the safest methods for transferring data into and out of the facility. As you prepare to begin your analysis, you find yourself considering an intriguing question: Can these people be sure that I am who I say I am? You are shown to the office made available to you and are provided with system login information, including the name of the wireless network and a wireless key. Still pondering, you attempt to pull up the facility's wireless network, but no networks appear in the wireless list. When you search for the wireless network by name, however it is readily found.

    What measures can protect client information stored at GFDC?

    A. De-linking of data into client-specific packets.
    B. Cloud-based applications.
    C. Server-side controls.
    D. Data pruning

  • Question 214:

    Which activity best supports the principle of data quality from a privacy perspective?

    A. Ensuring the data is classified.
    B. Protecting the data against unauthorized access.
    C. Ensuring the data is available for use.
    D. Protecting the data against unauthorized changes.

  • Question 215:

    SCENARIO

    You have just been hired by Ancillary.com, a seller of accessories for everything under the sun, including waterproof stickers for pool floats and decorative bands and cases for sunglasses. The company sells cell phone cases, e-cigarette

    cases, wine spouts, hanging air fresheners for homes and automobiles, book ends, kitchen implements, visors and shields for computer screens, passport holders, gardening tools and lawn ornaments, and catalogs full of health and beauty

    products. The list seems endless. As the CEO likes to say, Ancillary offers, without doubt, the widest assortment of low-price consumer products from a single company anywhere.

    Ancillary's operations are similarly diverse. The company originated with a team of sales consultants selling home and beauty products at small parties in the homes of customers, and this base business is still thriving. However, the company

    now sells online through retail sites designated for industries and demographics, sites such as "My Cool Ride" for automobile-related products or "Zoomer" for gear aimed toward young adults. The company organization includes a plethora of

    divisions, units and outrigger operations, as Ancillary has been built along a decentered model rewarding individual initiative and flexibility, while also acquiring key assets. The retail sites seem to all function differently, and you wonder about

    their compliance with regulations and industry standards. Providing tech support to these sites is also a challenge, partly due to a variety of logins and authentication protocols.

    You have been asked to lead three important new projects at Ancillary:

    The first is the personal data management and security component of a multi-faceted initiative to unify the company's culture. For this project, you are considering using a series of third- party servers to provide company data and approved

    applications to employees.

    The second project involves providing point of sales technology for the home sales force, allowing them to move beyond paper checks and manual credit card imprinting.

    Finally, you are charged with developing privacy protections for a single web store housing all the company's product lines as well as products from affiliates. This new omnibus site will be known, aptly, as "Under the Sun." The Director of

    Marketing wants the site not only to sell Ancillary's products, but to link to additional products from other retailers through paid advertisements. You need to brief the executive team of security concerns posed by this approach.

    What technology is under consideration in the first project in this scenario?

    A. Server driven controls.
    B. Cloud computing
    C. Data on demand
    D. MAC filtering

  • Question 216:

    What is the main issue pertaining to data protection with the use of 'deep fakes'?

    A. Misinformation.
    B. Non-conformity with the accuracy principle.
    C. Issues with establishing non-repudiation.
    D. Issues with confidentiality of the information.

  • Question 217:

    SCENARIO

    Looking back at your first two years as the Director of Personal Information Protection and Compliance for the Berry Country Regional Medical Center in Thorn Bay, Ontario, Canada, you see a parade of accomplishments, from developing state-of-the-art simulation based training for employees on privacy protection to establishing an interactive medical records system that is accessible by patients as well as by the medical personnel. Now, however, a question you have put off looms large: how do we manage all the data-not only records produced recently, but those still on hand from years ago? A data flow diagram generated last year shows multiple servers, databases, and work stations, many of which hold files that have not yet been incorporated into the new records system. While most of this data is encrypted, its persistence may pose security and compliance concerns. The situation is further complicated by several long-term studies being conducted by the medical staff using patient information. Having recently reviewed the major Canadian privacy regulations, you want to make certain that the medical center is observing them.

    You also recall a recent visit to the Records Storage Section, often termed "The Dungeon" in the basement of the old hospital next to the modern facility, where you noticed a multitude of paper records. Some of these were in crates marked by years, medical condition or alphabetically by patient name, while others were in undifferentiated bundles on shelves and on the floor. The back shelves of the section housed data tapes and old hard drives that were often unlabeled but appeared to be years old. On your way out of the dungeon, you noticed just ahead of you a small man in a lab coat who you did not recognize. He carried a batch of folders under his arm, apparently records he had removed from storage.

    Which data lifecycle phase needs the most attention at this Ontario medical center?

    A. Retention
    B. Disclosure
    C. Collection
    D. Use

  • Question 218:

    A jurisdiction requiring an organization to place a link on the website that allows a consumer to opt-out of sharing is an example of what type of requirement?

    A. Functional
    B. Procedural
    C. Operational
    D. Technical

  • Question 219:

    After downloading and loading a mobile app, the user is presented with an account registration page requesting the user to provide certain personal details. Two statements are also displayed on the same page along with a box for the user to check to indicate their confirmation:

    Statement 1 reads: "Please check this box to confirm you have read and accept the terms and conditions of the end user license agreement" and includes a hyperlink to the terms and conditions.

    Statement 2 reads: "Please check this box to confirm you have read and understood the privacy notice" and includes a hyperlink to the privacy notice.

    Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), what lawful basis would you primarily except the privacy notice to refer to?

    A. Consent.
    B. Vital interests.
    C. Legal obligation.
    D. Legitimate interests.

  • Question 220:

    Which concept related to privacy choice is demonstrated by highlighting and bolding the "accept" button on a cookies notice while maintaining standard text format for other options?

    A. Illuminating
    B. Nudging
    C. Suppression
    D. Tagging
