Certified Information Privacy Technologist (CIPT) — Question 114

Which of the following is an example of a just-in-time notice?

Answer options

• A. A browser warning that a website may be unsafe
• B. An SMS sent to authorize access to an app
• C. A credit card company using Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to authorize a purchase
• D. Privacy information given to a user when he attempts to comment on an online article

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C, illustrates a just-in-time notice as it provides immediate authentication requirements at the moment of a transaction. Options A and D are general warnings or information that do not require immediate action, while option B, although time-sensitive, does not fit the definition of being directly related to an authorization process like MFA does.
