Answer options

• A. PHI
• B. Trade secrets
• C. Proprietary

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

The correct answers, A (PHI) and E (PII), refer to Protected Health Information and Personally Identifiable Information, respectively, both of which are heavily regulated to protect individuals' privacy. In contrast, trade secrets, proprietary information, OSINT, and public data do not have the same level of regulatory scrutiny.
