Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) — Question 111

Inadvertent disclosure of internal business information on social media is BEST minimized by which of the following?

Answer options

• A. Implementing data loss prevention (DLP) solutions
• B. Limiting access to social media sites
• C. Developing social media guidelines
• D. Educating users on social media risks

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Educating users on social media risks is crucial because even with technical solutions in place, human error can lead to information leaks. While implementing DLP solutions, limiting access, and developing guidelines are important, they do not address the root cause of inadvertent disclosure as effectively as user education does.
