Which function within the IT corporate structure is responsible for classifying information using an agreed-upon classification scheme for a new data collection system?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The information security function within the IT corporate structure is responsible for classifying information using an agreed-upon classification scheme for a new data collection system. According to the COBIT 2019 Implementation Guide, information security is one of the key enablers of IT governance and management, and it includes the processes and practices for ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets. One of the activities of information security is to define and implement an information classification scheme that categorizes information based on its sensitivity, criticality, and value to the enterprise.This scheme helps to determine the appropriate level of protection and controls for different types of information, especially for new data collection systems that may involve personal or sensitive data.Reference:: COBIT 2019 Implementation Guide: Implementing and Optimizing an Information and Technology Governance Solution, page 151: COBIT 2019 Design Guide: Designing an Information & Technology Governance Solution, page 62.

I feel like enterprise architecture could play a role in structuring data systems, but classifying information seems more aligned with information security.

I practiced a similar question where we discussed data classification, and I think it was linked to information privacy, but that feels a bit off for this one.

I think the answer might be C, Information security, since they usually handle data classification, but I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'll start by eliminating the options that don't seem directly related to information management and security. Then I'll focus on the remaining choices and try to determine which one best fits the description.

I'm a bit confused by this question. Is it asking about the specific IT role or department that would handle this task? I'll need to re-read the question carefully and think through the different options.

Ah, I've got this one! The function responsible for classifying information using an agreed-upon scheme is information security. That's their job to manage and protect sensitive data.

This seems like a question about information management and security protocols. I'll need to think carefully about the different IT functions and which one would be responsible for classifying data.
