SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer next question:
EnsureClaim is developing a mobile app platform for managing data used for assessing car accident insurance claims. Individuals use the app to take pictures at the crash site, eliminating the need for a built-in vehicle camera. EnsureClaim uses a third-party hosting provider to store data collected by the app. EnsureClaim customer service employees also receive and review app data before sharing with insurance claim adjusters.
The app collects the following information:
First and last name
Date of birth (DOB)
Mailing address
Email address
Car VIN number
Car model
License plate
Insurance card number
Photo
Vehicle diagnostics
Geolocation
All of the following technical measures can be implemented by EnsureClaim to protect personal information that is accessible by third-parties EXCEPT?
While encryption, access controls, and multi-factor authentication are all technical measures that can protect personal information, de-identification specifically refers to the process of removing or modifying personal data so that individuals cannot be readily identified. Since EnsureClaim needs to provide personal data to third parties (such as insurance claim adjusters) for specific purposes (e.g., claim assessment), de-identification would not be appropriate as these third parties require access to identifiable information to perform their roles effectively.

SCENARIO
Please use the following to answer the next question:
Light Blue Health (LBH) is a healthcare technology company developing a new web and mobile application that collects personal health information from electronic patient health records. The application will use machine learning to recommend potential medical treatments and medications based on information collected from anonymized electronic health records. Patient users may also share health data collected from other mobile apps with the LBH app.
The application requires consent from the patient before importing electronic health records into the application and sharing it with their authorized physicians or healthcare provider. The patient can then review and share the recommended treatments with their physicians securely through the app. The patient user may also share location data and upload photos in the app. The patient user may also share location data and upload photos in the app for a healthcare provider to review along with the health record. The patient may also delegate access to the app.
LBH's privacy team meets with the Application development and Security teams, as well as key business stakeholders on a periodic basis. LBH also implements Privacy by Design (PbD) into the application development process.
The Privacy Team is conducting a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) to evaluate privacy risks during development of the application. The team must assess whether the application is collecting descriptive, demographic or any other user related data from the electronic health records that are not needed for the purposes of the application. The team is also reviewing whether the application may collect additional personal data for purposes for which the user did not provide consent.
The Privacy Team is conducting a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) for the new Light Blue Health application currently in development. Which of the following best describes a risk that is likely to result in a privacy breach?
Encryption of Data in Transit: Encrypting health records during transfer is a critical security measure to protect data from interception and unauthorized access. Failure to do so exposes sensitive personal health information to potential breaches.
Privacy Risks: Not encrypting data in transit can lead to significant privacy breaches, especially when dealing with highly sensitive health information. It is essential to use strong encryption methods to secure data during transfer between users' devices and servers.
Reference: The IAPP's documentation on Privacy by Design emphasizes the necessity of encryption for protecting personal data, particularly in healthcare applications where the risk and impact of data breaches are high. Additionally, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requires encryption of electronic protected health information (ePHI) in transit to ensure its security and confidentiality.
What is true of providers of wireless technology?
Providers of wireless technology have specific capabilities and responsibilities regarding the data that crosses their systems. Here's why option B is true:
Data Visibility: Wireless providers can see all unencrypted data that passes through their networks. This capability allows them to manage and monitor traffic effectively but also raises privacy concerns.
Encryption Importance: The visibility of unencrypted data underscores the importance of using encryption to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access.
Regulatory Compliance: Wireless providers are subject to data security regulations and must implement measures to protect data privacy and security, contrary to option C.
Data Control: Providers do not have the legal right to control and use any data on their systems without consent, as suggested in option A. Data control and usage are regulated by privacy laws and user agreements.
Backup Practices: While some providers may backup data, it is not a routine practice for all data that crosses their system, as implied in option D.
Which of the following is a privacy consideration for NOT sending large-scale SPAM type emails to a database of email addresses?
Which of the following statements best describes the relationship between privacy and security?
Security systems are essential for protecting data and ensuring that privacy policies are followed. Effective security measures can enforce access controls, encryption, and other protections that help maintain data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. By implementing robust security systems, organizations can ensure that personal information is handled according to privacy policies and regulatory requirements. The IAPP highlights that security is a foundational component for achieving privacy compliance.
