Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC) — Question 220

Which of the following roles would be MOST helpful in providing a high-level view of risk related to customer data loss?

Answer options

• A. Customer database manager
• B. Audit committee
• C. Data privacy officer
• D. Customer data custodian

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Data Privacy Officer is responsible for overseeing data protection strategies and ensuring compliance with regulations, making them the best choice for assessing risks related to customer data loss. The other roles, while important, focus more on operational management, auditing, or data handling, rather than on the strategic oversight of data privacy and risk management.
