  A. Value-Sensitive Design.
  B. Ubiquitous computing.
  C. Anthropomorphism.
  D. Coupling
  B. Ubiquitous computing.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  An organization launching a smart watch which notifies wearers of incoming calls allowing them to answer on the device would be an example of ubiquitous computing rather than coupling. Ubiquitous computing refers to technology that is seamlessly integrated into everyday life and allows for constant connectivity and interaction.

  Which of the following is NOT a mechanism to de-identify data?

  A. Aggregation
  B. Interpolation
  C. Obfuscation
  D. Truncation
  B. Interpolation

• Question 236:

  SCENARIO

  Please use the following to answer the next questions:

  Your company is launching a new track and trace health app during the outbreak of a virus pandemic in the US. The developers claim the app is based on privacy by design because personal data collected was considered to ensure only necessary data is captured, users are presented with a privacy notice, and they are asked to give consent before data is shared. Users can update their consent after logging into an account, through a dedicated privacy and consent hub. This is accessible through the `Settings' icon from any app page then clicking `My Preferences', and selecting `Information Sharing and Consent' where the following choices are displayed:

  1.

  "I consent to receive notifications and infection alerts";

  2.

  "I consent to receive information on additional features or services and new products";

  3.

  "I consent to sharing only my risk result and location information for exposure and contact tracing purposes";

  4.

  "I consent to share my data for medical research purposes"; and

  5.

  "I consent to share my data with healthcare providers affiliated to the company".

  For each choice, an `ON' or `OFF' tab is available The default setting is `ON' for all. Users purchase a virus screening service for US$29.99 for themselves or others using the app. The virus screening service works as follows:

  1.

  Step 1: A photo of the user's face is taken

  2.

  Step 2: The user measures their temperature and adds the reading in the app

  3.

  Step 3: The user is asked to read sentences so that a voice analysis can detect symptoms

  4.

  Step 4: The user is asked to answer questions on known symptoms

  5.

  Step 5: The user can input information on family members (name, date of birth, citizenship, home address, phone number, email and relationship).

  The results are displayed as one of the following risk status "Low", "Medium" or "High". If the user is deemed at "Medium" or "High" risk an alert may be sent to other users, and the user is invited to seek a medical consultation and diagnostic from a healthcare provider.

  A user's risk status also feeds a world map for contact tracing purposes, where users are able to check if they have been or are in close proximity of an infected person. If a user has come in contact with another individual classified as `medium' or `high' risk, an instant notification also alerts the user of this. The app collects location trails of every user to monitor locations visited by an infected individual. Location is collected using the phone's GPS functionality, whether the app is in use or not however the exact location of the user is "blurred' for privacy reasons. Users can only see on the map circles with a 12-feet radius (approximately 4 meters wide), which is double the recommended distance for social distancing.

  Which of the following is likely to be the most important issue with the choices presented in the 'Information Sharing and Consent' pages?

  A. Options for allowing location sharing are not provided
  B. Allowing users to share risk result information is not properly defined
  C. The data and recipients for medical research are not specified
  D. The sharing of information with an affiliated healthcare provider is not secure
  C. The data and recipients for medical research are not specified

• Question 237:

  Which of the following is the LEAST effective at meeting the Fair Information Practice Principles (FIPPs) in the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC)?

  A. Defining requirements to manage end user content
  B. Conducting privacy threat modeling for the use-case
  C. Developing data flow modeling to help the purpose, protection, and retention of sensitive data
  D. Reviewing the code against Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10 Security Risks
  D. Reviewing the code against Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10 Security Risks

• Question 238:

  A BaaS provider backs up the corporate data and stores it in an outsider provider under contract with the organization. A researcher notifies the organization that he found unsecured data in the cloud. The organization looked into the issue and realized one of its backups was misconfigured on the outside provider's cloud and the data fully exposed to the open internet. They quickly secured the backup. Which is the best next step the organization should take?

  A. Review the content of the data exposed.
  B. Review its contract with the outside provider.
  C. Investigate how the researcher discovered the unsecured data.
  D. Investigate using alternate BaaS providers or on-premise backup systems.
  A. Review the content of the data exposed.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  The best next step for the organization after discovering that their data was exposed due to a misconfiguration is to review the content of the data that was exposed. This step is crucial to understanding the scope and severity of the breach. It helps in determining if any sensitive or regulated data was involved, and thus, what further actions are needed, such as notifying affected parties or regulatory bodies, and assessing the potential impact on the organization and its stakeholders. This review is fundamental in managing the aftermath of the exposure effectively and in taking proactive measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future.

• Question 239:

  What is the main function of a breach response center?

  A. Detecting internal security attacks.
  B. Addressing privacy incidents.
  C. Providing training to internal constituencies.
  D. Interfacing with privacy regulators and governmental bodies.
  B. Addressing privacy incidents.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  The main function of a breach response center is to address privacy incidents1. A breach response center is a team of experts that conducts a comprehensive breach response when a data breach occurs1. The breach response center may include forensics, legal, information security, information technology, operations, human resources, communications, investor relations, and management1. The other options are not the main function of a breach response center, but rather possible tasks or roles that may be involved in a breach response.

• Question 240:

  In day to day interactions with technology, consumers are presented with privacy choices. Which of the following best represents the Privacy by Design (PbD) methodology of letting the user choose a non-zero-sum choice?

  A. Using images, words, and contexts to elicit positive feelings that result in proactive behavior, thus eliminating negativity and biases.
  B. Providing plain-language design choices that elicit privacy-related responses, helping users avoid errors and minimize the negative consequences of errors when they do occur.
  C. Displaying the percentage of users that chose a particular option, thus enabling the user to choose the most preferred option.
  D. Using contexts, antecedent events, and other priming concepts to assist the user in making a better privacy choice.
  B. Providing plain-language design choices that elicit privacy-related responses, helping users avoid errors and minimize the negative consequences of errors when they do occur.
