Certified Data Privacy Solutions Engineer (CDPSE) — Question 142

An organization is opening a new office in a country that has strict privacy regulations regarding consumer data. Which of the following is the BEST way for the senior leadership to ensure the related data processing complies with the country's requirements?

Answer options

• A. Align data privacy standards with industry standards.
• B. Mandate data privacy awareness training.
• C. Appoint a local data privacy controller.
• D. Enact policies that address data privacy risk exposure.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because appointing a local data privacy controller ensures that there is a dedicated individual responsible for compliance with local regulations. The other options, while beneficial, do not guarantee adherence to specific legal requirements in the new country as effectively as having a local controller who understands those laws.
