Exin Exam PDPF Topic 7 Question 86 Discussion

Actual exam question for Exin's PDPF exam
Question #: 86
Topic #: 7
[All PDPF Questions]

A good practice is to lock the computer automatically or manually when you are away from the workstation.

The company's DPO realizes that this procedure is not being followed by employees. This occurrence should be classified in which category?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

This occurrence should be classified as a security vulnerability, as it does not state whether an incident occurred for this reason.

However, the failure in this procedure can allow an incident to occur if an unauthorized person has access to the workstation.

Vulnerability is the means by which an attack can cause an information security incident.

I see your point, Magda. But prevention is key to avoid potential data breaches.

Haha, data breach? That's a bit extreme, don't you think? It's more like a security vulnerability that needs some training and enforcement.

There's no specific category? Really? I beg to differ. This is clearly a security vulnerability that needs to be documented and resolved.

Definitely a security incident. This kind of non-compliance can lead to bigger problems down the line if not handled properly.

But isn't it just a security incident if it hasn't resulted in any data breach yet?

I think this should be classified as a security vulnerability. Employees not following security protocols is a serious issue that needs to be addressed.
