IAPP CIPM Exam - Topic 9 Question 45 Discussion

Posted by Markus on Mar 31, 2023 at 02:31 PM

What are you doing if you succumb to "overgeneralization" when analyzing data from metrics?

Suggested Answer: D

The first step to mitigate further risks when a systems audit uncovers a shared drive folder containing sensitive employee data with no access controls is to restrict access to the folder. This can be done by implementing appropriate access controls, such as user authentication, role-based access, and permissions, to ensure that only authorized individuals can view and access the sensitive data.

I don't know, this feels a bit oversimplified.

B is also a possibility, but C really nails it.

Wait, are we sure it's not A? Seems too broad too!

Totally agree, C is spot on!

Overgeneralization means using limited data to support broad conclusions.
KI
Kizzy 1 year ago
I’m leaning towards A because it makes sense that broad data wouldn’t capture specific meanings, but I could be wrong.
AN
Anglea 1 year ago
I feel like overgeneralization could also relate to having too many types of data, but that seems more like B. I’m confused!

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think overgeneralization is about using limited data to make broad conclusions, which sounds like C.
AL

I think overgeneralization means using too broad data, so maybe it's A? But I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, let me see here. Present value is about the current worth of a future amount of money or stream of cash flows, discounted at an appropriate interest rate. So I think the best answer is C, that makes the most sense to me.
SA
Salley 1 year ago
Okay, I think I've got this. The key is understanding that the neutral line needs to be grounded at multiple points, not just the power transformer. I'll go with True on this one.

I remember discussing Optimal Gateway Routing in class, but I don't think it addresses the root issue here. Maybe it's more about location instead of gateway optimization?

I was gonna go with D, but now I'm not so sure. Overgeneralization can definitely happen when you try to measure too many things at once.

Hmm, I was leaning towards A, but C makes a lot of sense too. Gotta be careful not to draw big conclusions from a small data set.
