Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

To advise the controller on the mitigation of privacy risks to protect the controller from liability claims for non-compliance. Incorrect. The supervisory authority has the task to monitor compliance and to advise on enhancements, but its purpose is not to protect the controller.

To fulfill the obligation in the GDPR to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures for data protection. Incorrect. The audit is not the implementation of the measures, but an assessment of the effectiveness of them.

To monitor and enforce the application of the GDPR by assessing that processing is performed in compliance with the GDPR. Correct. According to the GDPR this is an important task of a supervisory authority. (Literature: A, Chapter 7; GDPR Article 57 (1)(a))

I’m a bit confused about the role of the supervisory authority. Is it really to advise on risk mitigation like option C suggests? That doesn’t seem right.

I feel like I’ve seen a question similar to this before, and it was about compliance monitoring, which makes me think A is correct.

I remember studying about the obligations under GDPR, but I’m not sure if that’s the main focus of the audit. Could it be option B instead?

Ah, I think I've got it. The output is likely a MailMessage object, which can handle the different email formats. Time to select my answer!

The election process in a replication cluster is important, so I'll need to review my notes on the different node types and their roles. B. Arbiter sounds right, but I want to double-check.
