Haha, D is a classic trap answer. Fiduciary responsibility for credit cards? That's way too specific. The main reason has to be one of the broader, more general options.

I was thinking B - transferring the risk. If you can't eliminate the risk of handling PII, you need to at least shift it to someone else, like an insurance provider.

Yeah, I agree with Mary. Compliance and risk transfer are important, but really understanding the risks is key. You can't manage what you don't understand.

I think the main reason is C - we need to better understand the risks associated with using PII data. That's critical for any organization handling sensitive information.
