Your organization has recently experienced a data breach that involved personally identifiable information (PII) of customers. What is the most important first step in regulatory reporting to ensure compliance?
The correct answer is to determine the jurisdictions affected because different regions have different legal obligations concerning data breaches. Identifying the jurisdictions helps in understanding the required regulatory reporting guidelines specific to each region. For instance, reporting obligations in the European Union under GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) are different from those in the United States under various state laws. The incorrect answers involve subsequent steps that are also important but should follow the initial determination of affected jurisdictions.
