Developing Applications Using Cisco Core Platforms and APIs (DEVCOR) — Question 173

What is a data privacy concern when designing data storage?

Answer options

• A. Data must be kept for as long as necessary.
• B. Storage must be designed to enable data maximization.
• C. Data must be retained in secure data storage after use.
• D. Storage must be designed to enforce encryption in transit.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because data privacy regulations often dictate that data should only be retained for the duration necessary to fulfill its purpose. Option B is incorrect as data maximization can lead to over-retention of unnecessary data, which raises privacy concerns. Option C, while related to security, does not address the need for data retention duration, and option D focuses on encryption rather than retention policies.
