Certified Data Privacy Solutions Engineer (CDPSE) — Question 93

Which of the following is an IT privacy practitioner’s BEST recommendation to reduce privacy risk before an organization provides personal data to a third party?

Answer options

• A. Tokenization
• B. Aggregation
• C. Anonymization
• D. Encryption

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Anonymization is the best approach as it removes personally identifiable information from data sets, effectively protecting individual privacy when data is shared. Tokenization and encryption are useful but do not completely eliminate the risk of re-identification. Aggregation can reduce risk but does not fully protect personal data when shared with third parties.
