AObtaining approval from process owners

BProfiling current data use

CFollowing an established privacy framework

DPerforming an inventory of all data

Suggested Answer: C

Following an established privacy framework is the most important step when developing an organizational data privacy program because it provides a structured and consistent approach to identify, assess, and manage privacy risks and compliance obligations. A privacy framework can also help to align the privacy program with the organization's strategic goals, values, and culture, as well as to communicate and demonstrate the privacy program's effectiveness to internal and external stakeholders. Some examples of established privacy frameworks are theNIST Privacy Framework, theISO/IEC 27701:2019, and theAICPA Privacy Maturity Model.
