CIPM Officer Practice Questions
The free CIPM: Certified Information Privacy Manager questions that deal with officer, with answers and explanations. The full bank and the timed practice test cover every topic the exam asks about.
Question #3
If an organization maintains a separate ethics office, to whom would its officer typically report to in order to retain the greatest degree of independence?
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Reporting to the Board of Directors keeps the ethics officer outside the management chain being overseen, preserving independence. Reporting to the CFO, HR or General Counsel creates a conflict, since those functions may themselves be subject to review.
Question #7
An organization's privacy officer was just notified by the benefits manager that she accidentally sent out the retirement enrollment report of all employees to a wrong vendor. Which of the following actions should the privacy officer take first?
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The first step is to assess the risk of harm, since that determines whether the event is a reportable breach and what notification or containment steps follow. Contacting the recipient or notifying staff comes after that assessment.
