Wait, can they really penalize under D? That sounds harsh!

I thought option D was about penalties, but I’m not clear if that’s something Member States can enforce directly under GDPR.

I feel like option C could be relevant, but I can't recall if auditing is specifically mentioned in the GDPR provisions for Member States.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about notifying data subjects in case of breaches, which might relate to option B.

I think option A sounds familiar since we discussed how Member States can have their own laws to complement GDPR.
DE

I think option A is the way to go here. The GDPR provides a framework, but leaves room for Member States to adapt it to their national context.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the GDPR gives Member States some flexibility, but I can't recall the specifics off the top of my head.

Okay, let me think this through. The GDPR sets the baseline, but allows Member States to make certain decisions, so I'm guessing option A is the right answer.

I'm with Linwood on this one. Auditing security processes is where it's at. Although, a good old-fashioned penalty doesn't sound too bad either. Decisions, decisions...

Hmm, I don't know. I'm stuck between B and D. The GDPR does mention something about forcing data breach notifications, but the penalty power also seems like a big deal. Maybe I'll just guess and hope for the best.
LU
Luisa

I'm not sure, but I think I'll go with D. Penalties can serve as a strong deterrent for non-compliance with GDPR.

Come on, guys. It's clearly option C. The GDPR empowers authorities to audit the security measures of controllers and processors. That's a no-brainer.
