NEW QUESTION # 94
In which situation would a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) be the least likely to be required?

• A. If a health-care professional or lawyer processed personal data from a patient's file.
• B. If a social media company created a new product compiling personal data to generate user profiles.
• C. If a company created a credit-scoring platform five years ago.
• D. If an after-school club processed children's data to determine which children might have food allergies.

Answer: C

Explanation:
Explanation
A Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) is a process that helps to identify and mitigate the privacy risks of a project or activity that involves personal data. A PIA is usually required when there is a new or significant change in the way personal data is collected, used, or disclosed. Therefore, a PIA would be the least likely to be required if a company created a credit-scoring platform five years ago, as this would not be a new or significant change. The other situations involve new or changed processing of personal data that could have privacy impacts, such as sensitive data (health or children's data), profiling data (user profiles), or large-scale data (patient's file). References: CIPM Study Guide, page 30; Guide to undertaking privacy impact assessments.

NEW QUESTION # 95
SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION:
Natalia, CFO of the Nationwide Grill restaurant chain, had never seen her fellow executives so anxious. Last week, a data processing firm used by the company reported that its system may have been hacked, and customer data such as names, addresses, and birthdays may have been compromised. Although the attempt was proven unsuccessful, the scare has prompted several Nationwide Grill executives to Question the company's privacy program at today's meeting.
Alice, a vice president, said that the incident could have opened the door to lawsuits, potentially damaging Nationwide Grill's market position. The Chief Information Officer (CIO), Brendan, tried to assure her that even if there had been an actual breach, the chances of a successful suit against the company were slim. But Alice remained unconvinced.
Spencer - a former CEO and currently a senior advisor - said that he had always warned against the use of contractors for data processing. At the very least, he argued, they should be held contractually liable for telling customers about any security incidents. In his view, Nationwide Grill should not be forced to soil the company name for a problem it did not cause.
One of the business development (BD) executives, Haley, then spoke, imploring everyone to see reason.
"Breaches can happen, despite organizations' best efforts," she remarked. "Reasonable preparedness is key." She reminded everyone of the incident seven years ago when the large grocery chain Tinkerton's had its financial information compromised after a large order of Nationwide Grill frozen dinners. As a long-time BD executive with a solid understanding of Tinkerton's's corporate culture, built up through many years of cultivating relationships, Haley was able to successfully manage the company's incident response.
Spencer replied that acting with reason means allowing security to be handled by the security functions within the company - not BD staff. In a similar way, he said, Human Resources (HR) needs to do a better job training employees to prevent incidents. He pointed out that Nationwide Grill employees are overwhelmed with posters, emails, and memos from both HR and the ethics department related to the company's privacy program. Both the volume and the duplication of information means that it is often ignored altogether.
Spencer said, "The company needs to dedicate itself to its privacy program and set regular in-person trainings for all staff once a month." Alice responded that the suggestion, while well-meaning, is not practical. With many locations, local HR departments need to have flexibility with their training schedules. Silently, Natalia agreed.
How could the objection to Spencer's training suggestion be addressed?

• A. By introducing a system of periodic refresher trainings.
• B. By requiring training only on an as-needed basis.
• C. By offering alternative delivery methods for trainings.
• D. By customizing training based on length of employee tenure.

Answer: C

NEW QUESTION # 96
"Collection", "access" and "destruction" are aspects of what privacy management process?

• A. The business case
• B. The breach response plan
• C. The metric life cycle
• D. The data governance strategy

Answer: C

Explanation:
Explanation
The metric life cycle is a process that involves collecting, accessing, analyzing, reporting, and destroying data.
These aspects are essential for measuring the performance and effectiveness of privacy programs. References: IAPP CIPM Study Guide, page 14.

NEW QUESTION # 97
SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION:
For 15 years, Albert has worked at Treasure Box - a mail order company in the United States (U.S.) that used to sell decorative candles around the world, but has recently decided to limit its shipments to customers in the
48 contiguous states. Despite his years of experience, Albert is often overlooked for managerial positions. His frustration about not being promoted, coupled with his recent interest in issues of privacy protection, have motivated Albert to be an agent of positive change.
He will soon interview for a newly advertised position, and during the interview, Albert plans on making executives aware of lapses in the company's privacy program. He feels certain he will be rewarded with a promotion for preventing negative consequences resulting from the company's outdated policies and procedures.
For example, Albert has learned about the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountans)/CICA (Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants) Privacy Maturity Model (PMM). Albert thinks the model is a useful way to measure Treasure Box's ability to protect personal data. Albert has noticed that Treasure Box fails to meet the requirements of the highest level of maturity of this model; at his interview, Albert will pledge to assist the company with meeting this level in order to provide customers with the most rigorous security available.
Albert does want to show a positive outlook during his interview. He intends to praise the company's commitment to the security of customer and employee personal data against external threats. However, Albert worries about the high turnover rate within the company, particularly in the area of direct phone marketing. He sees many unfamiliar faces every day who are hired to do the marketing, and he often hears complaints in the lunch room regarding long hours and low pay, as well as what seems to be flagrant disregard for company procedures.
In addition, Treasure Box has had two recent security incidents. The company has responded to the incidents with internal audits and updates to security safeguards. However, profits still seem to be affected and anecdotal evidence indicates that many people still harbor mistrust. Albert wants to help the company recover.
He knows there is at least one incident the public in unaware of, although Albert does not know the details. He believes the company's insistence on keeping the incident a secret could be a further detriment to its reputation. One further way that Albert wants to help Treasure Box regain its stature is by creating a toll-free number for customers, as well as a more efficient procedure for responding to customer concerns by postal mail.
In addition to his suggestions for improvement, Albert believes that his knowledge of the company's recent business maneuvers will also impress the interviewers. For example, Albert is aware of the company's intention to acquire a medical supply company in the coming weeks.
With his forward thinking, Albert hopes to convince the managers who will be interviewing him that he is right for the job.
Based on Albert's observations, executive leadership should most likely pay closer attention to what?

• A. Outdated security frameworks
• B. Obsolete data processing systems
• C. Potential in-house threats
• D. Awareness campaigns with confusing information

Answer: B

Explanation:
Explanation
This answer is the best suggestion that Albert should make based on his observations regarding recent security incidents, as it can help to ensure that Treasure Box's privacy program and practices are assessed and verified by an independent and objective party who has the necessary expertise, experience and credentials to evaluate the company's compliance with the applicable laws, regulations, standards and best practices for data protection. Using a third-party auditor can also help to identify any gaps, weaknesses or risks that may have been overlooked or missed by the prior internal audits, and to recommend or implement any improvements or corrective actions. A third-party audit can also help to enhance the company's reputation and trust among its customers, partners and stakeholders, as well as demonstrate its commitment and accountability for privacy protection.

NEW QUESTION # 98
When building a data privacy program, what is a good starting point to understand the scope of privacy program needs?

• A. Complete a Data Inventory.
• B. Perform Risk Assessments
• C. Review Audits.
• D. Perform Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs).

Answer: A

NEW QUESTION # 99
SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION:
Ben works in the IT department of IgNight, Inc., a company that designs lighting solutions for its clients.
Although IgNight's customer base consists primarily of offices in the US, some individuals have been so impressed by the unique aesthetic and energy-saving design of the light fixtures that they have requested IgNight's installations in their homes across the globe.
One Sunday morning, while using his work laptop to purchase tickets for an upcoming music festival, Ben happens to notice some unusual user activity on company files. From a cursory review, all the data still appears to be where it is meant to be but he can't shake off the feeling that something is not right. He knows that it is a possibility that this could be a colleague performing unscheduled maintenance, but he recalls an email from his company's security team reminding employees to be on alert for attacks from a known group of malicious actors specifically targeting the industry.
Ben is a diligent employee and wants to make sure that he protects the company but he does not want to bother his hard-working colleagues on the weekend. He is going to discuss the matter with this manager first thing in the morning but wants to be prepared so he can demonstrate his knowledge in this area and plead his case for a promotion.
If this were a data breach, how is it likely to be categorized?

• A. Integrity Breach.
• B. Confidentiality Breach.
• C. Availability Breach.
• D. Authenticity Breach.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Explanation
If this were a data breach, it is likely to be categorized as a confidentiality breach. A confidentiality breach is a type of data breach that involves unauthorized or accidental disclosure of or access to personal data. A confidentiality breach violates the principle of confidentiality, which requires that personal data is protected from unauthorized or unlawful use or disclosure. A confidentiality breach can occur when personal data is exposed to unauthorized parties, such as hackers, competitors, or third parties without consent. A confidentiality breach can also occur when personal data is sent to incorrect recipients, such as by email or mail.
The other options are not likely to be the correct category for this data breach. An availability breach is a type of data breach that involves accidental or unauthorized loss of access to or destruction of personal data. An availability breach violates the principle of availability, which requires that personal data is accessible and usable by authorized parties when needed. An availability breach can occur when personal data is deleted, corrupted, encrypted, or otherwise rendered inaccessible by malicious actors or technical errors. An authenticity breach is a type of data breach that involves unauthorized or accidental alteration of personal data.
An authenticity breach violates the principle of authenticity, which requires that personal data is accurate and up to date. An authenticity breach can occur when personal data is modified, tampered with, or falsified by malicious actors or human errors. An integrity breach is a type of data breach that involves unauthorized or accidental alteration of personal data that affects its quality or reliability. An integrity breach violates the principle of integrity, which requires that personal data is complete and consistent with its intended purpose.
An integrity breach can occur when personal data is incomplete, inconsistent, outdated, or inaccurate due to malicious actors or human errors. References: Personal Data Breaches: A Guide; Guidance on the Categorisation and Notification of Personal Data Breaches

NEW QUESTION # 100
SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION:
Perhaps Jack Kelly should have stayed in the U.S. He enjoys a formidable reputation inside the company, Special Handling Shipping, for his work in reforming certain "rogue" offices. Last year, news broke that a police sting operation had revealed a drug ring operating in the Providence, Rhode Island office in the United States. Video from the office's video surveillance cameras leaked to news operations showed a drug exchange between Special Handling staff and undercover officers.
In the wake of this incident, Kelly had been sent to Providence to change the "hands off" culture that upper management believed had let the criminal elements conduct their illicit transactions. After a few weeks under Kelly's direction, the office became a model of efficiency and customer service. Kelly monitored his workers' activities using the same cameras that had recorded the illegal conduct of their former co-workers.
Now Kelly has been charged with turning around the office in Cork, Ireland, another trouble spot. The company has received numerous reports of the staff leaving the office unattended. When Kelly arrived, he found that even when present, the staff often spent their days socializing or conducting personal business on their mobile phones. Again, he observed their behaviors using surveillance cameras. He issued written reprimands to six staff members based on the first day of video alone.
Much to Kelly's surprise and chagrin, he and the company are now under investigation by the Data Protection Commissioner of Ireland for allegedly violating the privacy rights of employees. Kelly was told that the company's license for the cameras listed facility security as their main use, but he does not know why this matters. He has pointed out to his superiors that the company's training programs on privacy protection and data collection mention nothing about surveillance video.
You are a privacy protection consultant, hired by the company to assess this incident, report on the legal and compliance issues, and recommend next steps.
Knowing that the regulator is now investigating, what would be the best step to take?

• A. Consult an attorney experienced in privacy law and litigation.
• B. If you know the organization is guilty, advise it to accept the punishment.
• C. Use your background and knowledge to set a course of action.
• D. Negotiate the terms of a settlement before formal legal action takes place.

Answer: A

Explanation:
Explanation
This answer is the best step to take knowing that the regulator is now investigating, as it can help the organization to obtain legal advice and representation on how to respond to and cooperate with the investigation, as well as how to defend or resolve any potential claims or disputes that may arise from the incident. Consulting an attorney experienced in privacy law and litigation can also help the organization to understand its rights and obligations under the applicable laws and regulations, as well as the possible outcomes and consequences of the investigation. An attorney can also assist the organization in preparing and submitting any required documents or evidence, communicating with the regulator or other parties, negotiating a settlement or agreement, or challenging or appealing any decisions or actions taken by the regulator.

Based on the scenario, Nationwide Grill needs to create better employee awareness of the company's privacy program by doing what?

• A. Communicating to the staff more often.
• B. Varying the modes of communication.
• C. Requiring acknowledgment of company memos.
• D. Improving inter-departmental cooperation.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Explanation
This answer is the best way to create better employee awareness of the company's privacy program, as it can increase the effectiveness and retention of the information by appealing to different learning styles and preferences. Varying the modes of communication can include using different formats and channels, such as posters, emails, memos, videos, webinars, podcasts, newsletters, quizzes, games or interactive modules.
Varying the modes of communication can also help to avoid information overload or duplication, which may cause employees to ignore or disregard the privacy messages. References: IAPP CIPM Study Guide, page 90; ISO/IEC 27002:2013, section 7.2.2

NEW QUESTION # 104
Which of the following is NOT an important factor to consider when developing a data retention policy?

• A. Business requirement.
• B. Technology resource.
• C. Organizational culture.
• D. Compliance requirement

Answer: C

Explanation:
Organizational culture is not an important factor to consider when developing a data retention policy. A data retention policy is a document that defines how long an organization retains personal information for various purposes and how it disposes of it securely when it is no longer needed. A data retention policy should be based on factors such as: business requirements, such as operational needs, customer expectations, contractual obligations, or industry standards; compliance requirements, such as legal obligations, regulatory mandates, or audit recommendations; and technology resources, such as storage capacity, backup systems, encryption methods, or disposal tools. Organizational culture, which refers to the values, beliefs, norms, and behaviors that shape how an organization operates and interacts with its stakeholders, is not a relevant factor for determining data retention periods or disposal methods.

NEW QUESTION # 105
(Which of the following actions should be pnoritized to ensure continuous compliance with the new phvacy law?)

• A. Develop a process to notify the privacy and information security teams of any new personal data flows or products that process personal information before they go live.
• B. Establish a policy to restrict access to personal data in the test and development environment.
• C. Implement a data inventory and data mapping process to document all personal data processing activities across the organization.
• D. Conduct a regular audit of email communication to ensure that sensitive personal data is not sent using personal email accounts.

Answer: C

Explanation:
A data inventory/data mapping capability is the backbone of ongoing compliance: you cannot continuously comply with a new law without knowingwhat data you have, where it flows, why it's processed, who receives it, and how long it's kept. This foundation then enables effective controls like go-live review gates (A), targeted audits (C), and environment access restrictions (D).

NEW QUESTION # 106
SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION:
It's just what you were afraid of. Without consulting you, the information technology director at your organization launched a new initiative to encourage employees to use personal devices for conducting business. The initiative made purchasing a new, high-specification laptop computer an attractive option, with discounted laptops paid for as a payroll deduction spread over a year of paychecks. The organization is also paying the sales taxes. It's a great deal, and after a month, more than half the organization's employees have signed on and acquired new laptops. Walking through the facility, you see them happily customizing and comparing notes on their new computers, and at the end of the day, most take their laptops with them, potentially carrying personal data to their homes or other unknown locations. It's enough to give you data- protection nightmares, and you've pointed out to the information technology Director and many others in the organization the potential hazards of this new practice, including the inevitability of eventual data loss or theft.
Today you have in your office a representative of the organization's marketing department who shares with you, reluctantly, a story with potentially serious consequences. The night before, straight from work, with laptop in hand, he went to the Bull and Horn Pub to play billiards with his friends. A fine night of sport and socializing began, with the laptop "safely" tucked on a bench, beneath his jacket. Later that night, when it was time to depart, he retrieved the jacket, but the laptop was gone. It was not beneath the bench or on another bench nearby. The waitstaff had not seen it. His friends were not playing a joke on him. After a sleepless night, he confirmed it this morning, stopping by the pub to talk to the cleanup crew. They had not found it. The laptop was missing. Stolen, it seems. He looks at you, embarrassed and upset.
You ask him if the laptop contains any personal data from clients, and, sadly, he nods his head, yes. He believes it contains files on about 100 clients, including names, addresses and governmental identification numbers. He sighs and places his head in his hands in despair.
Which is the best way to ensure that data on personal equipment is protected?

• A. User risk training.
• B. Biometric security.
• C. Frequent data backups.
• D. Encryption of the data.

Answer: D

Explanation:
Encryption of the data is the best way to ensure that data on personal equipment is protected, as it prevents unauthorized access to the data even if the equipment is lost or stolen. Encryption is the process of transforming data into an unreadable format that can only be decrypted with a valid key or password. Encryption can be applied to the entire device, a specific folder or file, or a removable storage media. Encryption is one of the most effective technical safeguards for data protection and is recommended by many privacy laws and standards. Reference: IAPP CIPM Study Guide, page 831; ISO/IEC 27002:2013, section 10.1.1

NEW QUESTION # 107
SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION:
As the Director of data protection for Consolidated Records Corporation, you are justifiably pleased with your accomplishments so far. Your hiring was precipitated by warnings from regulatory agencies following a series of relatively minor data breaches that could easily have been worse. However, you have not had a reportable incident for the three years that you have been with the company. In fact, you consider your program a model that others in the data storage industry may note in their own program development.
You started the program at Consolidated from a jumbled mix of policies and procedures and worked toward coherence across departments and throughout operations. You were aided along the way by the program's sponsor, the vice president of operations, as well as by a Privacy Team that started from a clear understanding of the need for change.
Initially, your work was greeted with little confidence or enthusiasm by the company's "old guard" among both the executive team and frontline personnel working with data and interfacing with clients. Through the use of metrics that showed the costs not only of the breaches that had occurred, but also projections of the costs that easily could occur given the current state of operations, you soon had the leaders and key decision-makers largely on your side. Many of the other employees were more resistant, but face-to-face meetings with each department and the development of a baseline privacy training program achieved sufficient "buy-in" to begin putting the proper procedures into place.
Now, privacy protection is an accepted component of all current operations involving personal or protected data and must be part of the end product of any process of technological development. While your approach is not systematic, it is fairly effective.
You are left contemplating:
What must be done to maintain the program and develop it beyond just a data breach prevention program? How can you build on your success?
What are the next action steps?
What process could most effectively be used to add privacy protections to a new, comprehensive program being developed at Consolidated?

• A. Innovation Privacy Standards.
• B. Privacy Step Assessment.
• C. Privacy by Design.
• D. Information Security Planning.

Answer: D

NEW QUESTION # 108
A minimum requirement for carrying out a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) would include?

• A. Assessment of the necessity and proportionality.
• B. Processing on a large scale of special categories of data.
• C. Assessment of security measures.
• D. Monitoring of a publicly accessible area on a large scale.

Answer: A

NEW QUESTION # 109
For an organization that has just experienced a data breach, what might be the least relevant metric for a company's privacy and governance team?

• A. The number of Privacy Impact Assessments that have been completed.
• B. The number of privacy rights requests that have been exercised.
• C. The number of security patches applied to company devices.
• D. The number of employees who have completed data awareness training.

Answer: C

Explanation:
Explanation
The number of security patches applied to company devices might be the least relevant metric for a company's privacy and governance team after a data breach. While security patches are important for preventing future breaches, they do not directly measure the impact or response of the current breach. The other metrics are more relevant for assessing how the company handled the breach, such as how it complied with the privacy rights of affected individuals, how it evaluated the privacy risks of its systems, and how it trained its employees on data awareness. References: CIPM Study Guide, page 28.

NEW QUESTION # 110
What is the main function of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Privacy Framework?

• A. Protecting data from parties outside the region.
• B. Establishing legal requirements for privacy protection in the region.
• C. Marketing privacy protection technologies developed in the region.
• D. Enabling regional data transfers.

Answer: D

Explanation:
The main function of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Privacy Framework is enabling regional data transfers while protecting information privacy across APEC member economies. The Framework promotes a flexible approach to information privacy protection that avoids the creation of unnecessary barriers to information flows3 It is based on a set of common privacy principles that are consistent with the core values of the OECD Guidelines on the Protection of Privacy and Transborder Flows of Personal Data3 The Framework also provides guidance for domestic implementation and international implementation of the privacy principles through various mechanisms, such as cross-border privacy rules (CBPRs), accountability agents, regulators, enforcement cooperation, and capacity building3 The Framework aims to facilitate the safe transfer of information between economies, enhance consumer trust and confidence in online transactions and information networks, encourage the use of electronic data to enhance and expand business opportunities, and provide technical assistance to economies that have yet to address privacy from a regulatory or policy perspective4 Reference: 3: APEC PRIVACY PRINCIPLES; 4: APEC Data Privacy Pathfinder

NEW QUESTION # 111
Which of the following best supports implementing controls to bring privacy policies into effect?

• A. The internal audit department establishing the audit controls which test for policy effectiveness.
• B. The legal department or outside counsel conducting a thorough review of the privacy program and policies.
• C. The Chief Information Officer as part of the Senior Management Team creating enterprise privacy policies to ensure controls are available.
• D. The information technology (IT) group supporting and enhancing the privacy program and privacy policy by developing processes and controls.

Answer: D

Explanation:
The information technology (IT) group supporting and enhancing the privacy program and privacy policy by developing processes and controls best supports implementing controls to bring privacy policies into effect. Privacy policies are documents that define the organization's principles, commitments, and practices for collecting, using, disclosing, retaining, and protecting personal information. Privacy policies need to be translated into operational processes and controls that ensure compliance with the policy objectives and requirements. The IT group can support and enhance the privacy program and privacy policy by developing processes and controls such as: data classification, data inventory, data mapping, data minimization, consent management, access control, encryption, pseudonymization, anonymization, security safeguards, breach detection and response, data subject rights fulfillment, data retention and disposal, audit logging and monitoring, privacy by design and default, privacy impact assessments, privacy notices and statements, privacy training and awareness.

A consistent privacy program can also help reduce errors, risks, and costs associated with privacy compliance.

NEW QUESTION # 113
SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next question:
As they company's new chief executive officer, Thomas Goddard wants to be known as a leader in data protection. Goddard recently served as the chief financial officer of Hoopy.com, a pioneer in online video viewing with millions of users around the world. Unfortunately, Hoopy is infamous within privacy protection circles for its ethically questionable practices, including unauthorized sales of personal data to marketers.
Hoopy also was the target of credit card data theft that made headlines around the world, as at least two million credit card numbers were thought to have been pilfered despite the company's claims that "appropriate" data protection safeguards were in place. The scandal affected the company's business as competitors were quick to market an increased level of protection while offering similar entertainment and media content. Within three weeks after the scandal broke, Hoopy founder and CEO Maxwell Martin, Goddard's mentor, was forced to step down.
Goddard, however, seems to have landed on his feet, securing the CEO position at your company, Medialite, which is just emerging from its start-up phase. He sold the company's board and investors on his vision of Medialite building its brand partly on the basis of industry-leading data protection standards and procedures.
He may have been a key part of a lapsed or even rogue organization in matters of privacy but now he claims to be reformed and a true believer in privacy protection. In his first week on the job, he calls you into his office and explains that your primary work responsibility is to bring his vision for privacy to life. But you also detect some reservations. "We want Medialite to have absolutely the highest standards," he says. "In fact, I want us to be able to say that we are the clear industry leader in privacy and data protection. However, I also need to be a responsible steward of the company's finances. So, while I want the best solutions across the board, they also need to be cost effective." You are told to report back in a week's time with your recommendations. Charged with this ambiguous mission, you depart the executive suite, already considering your next steps.
The CEO likes what he's seen of the company's improved privacy program, but wants additional assurance that it is fully compliant with industry standards and reflects emerging best practices. What would best help accomplish this goal?

• A. Revision of the strategic plan to provide a system of technical controls
• B. Creation of a self-certification framework based on company policies
• C. An internal audit team accountable to upper management
• D. An external audit conducted by a panel of industry experts

Answer: A

NEW QUESTION # 114
"Respond" in the privacy operational lifecycle includes which of the following?

• A. Information security practices and functional area integration.
• B. Privacy awareness training and compliance monitoring.
• C. Communication to stakeholders and alignment to laws.
• D. Information requests and privacy rights requests.

Answer: D

Explanation:
"Respond" in the privacy operational lifecycle includes information requests and privacy rights requests, which are requests from individuals or authorities to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of personal data. The privacy program must have processes and procedures to handle such requests in a timely and compliant manner. The other options are not part of the "respond" phase, but rather belong to other phases such as "protect", "aware", or "align". Reference: CIPM Body of Knowledge, Domain III: Privacy Program Operational Life Cycle, Section D: Respond.
