CompTIA Data+ (DA0-001) — Question 206

An analyst collected data that includes primary account numbers, expiration dates, and service codes. Which of the following data governance classifications is used to describe this data?

Answer options

• A. PII
• B. PCI
• C. PBI
• D. PHI

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, PCI (Payment Card Industry) because the data includes sensitive payment information related to credit and debit cards. The other options are incorrect as PII (A) refers to personally identifiable information, PBI (C) is not a standard classification, and PHI (D) pertains to protected health information, which does not apply in this context.
