Actual exam question for Isaca's CDPSE exam

Question #: 51
Topic #: 7

A privacy risk assessment identified that a third-party collects personal data on the organization's behalf. This finding could subject the organization to a regulatory fine for not disclosing this relationship. What should the organization do NEXT?

AAmend the privacy policy to include a provision that data might be collected by trusted third parties.

BReview the third-party relationship to determine who should be collecting data.

CUpdate the risk assessment process to cover only required disclosures.

DDisclose the relationship to those affected in jurisdictions where such disclosures are required.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

The organization should disclose the relationship to those affected in jurisdictions where such disclosures are required, as this is the most appropriate and compliant action to take after identifying a privacy risk related to third-party data collection. Disclosing the relationship to the data subjects is a way of providing transparency and accountability, as well as respecting their rights and choices regarding their personal data. It also helps the organization avoid regulatory fines or sanctions for not complying with the applicable privacy laws or regulations that mandate such disclosures. The other options are not as effective or sufficient as disclosing the relationship, as they do not address the root cause of the risk, do not mitigate the potential harm to the data subjects, or do not align with the privacy principles and best practices.

Reviewing the third-party relationship first makes more sense.

Disclosing the relationship as mentioned in option D sounds like the right move, especially since regulations can vary by jurisdiction. I think we should prioritize compliance.

I feel like updating the risk assessment process to only cover required disclosures, like in option C, might not address the immediate issue. It seems a bit risky.

I remember a case study where reviewing third-party relationships was crucial, so option B seems relevant. But what if the third party is already compliant?

I think we talked about the importance of transparency in privacy policies, so maybe option A could be a good start? But I'm not entirely sure if that's enough.

This seems straightforward enough. I'll review the requirements closely and then select the minimum number of host pools that can satisfy them.

Haha, D is a no-brainer. Reminds me of that old saying, 'honesty is the best policy, unless you're trying to hide something from the government. Then it's just a really bad policy.'

I'm going to have to go with D as well. Might as well rip the band-aid off now and get it over with. Plus, it's better to be proactive and transparent than to get caught by the regulators later.

Option D is the obvious choice here. Transparency is key when it comes to privacy, and the organization has a responsibility to disclose this relationship to affected individuals.
