Certified Data Privacy Solutions Engineer (CDPSE) — Question 119

Which of the following is the BEST example of risk-based data protection?

Answer options

• A. Data encryption
• B. Data segmentation
• C. Transit-layer encryption
• D. Data partitioning

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Data segmentation is considered the best example of risk-based data protection because it involves dividing data into different segments based on sensitivity and risk, allowing for targeted protection measures. In contrast, data encryption, transit-layer encryption, and data partitioning are important security measures, but they do not specifically address risk prioritization in the same way that segmentation does.
