Actual exam question for Exin's PDPF exam
Question #: 58
Topic #: 7
[All PDPF Questions]

Which cause is a data breach according to the GDPR?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Controller: Correct. The controller determines the purpose and means of the processing. (Literature: A, Chapter 1; GDPR Article 4(7))

Processor: Incorrect. The controller determines the purpose of the processing, the processor works on the controller's instructions.

Supervisory authority: Incorrect. The supervisory authority monitors and enforces compliance with the GDPR requirements.

Third party: Incorrect. A third party has no role in determining the purpose of the processing. Any party that determines the purpose would become a new controller.

Wait, processing without a contract counts as a breach? Really?

I recall something about server vulnerabilities leading to breaches, so option D might be relevant too. It's tricky!

Option A seems like it could be a breach since it's about illegally obtained data, but I feel like I need to double-check the definitions.

I remember practicing a question about data processing without consent, which sounds like option B, but I don't think that's a breach itself.

I think a data breach involves unauthorized access, so maybe option C is correct? But I'm not entirely sure.

I'm a bit confused by this question. I know the GDPR covers data breaches, but I'm not certain which of these options would specifically qualify. I'll have to double-check the definitions.

Okay, I've got it! The correct answer is C. The GDPR says personal data can only be processed by the controller, processor, or subprocessor, so anything else would be a data breach.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I'll have to review the GDPR details on what constitutes a data breach. Let me think this through carefully.

I think the answer is B. The GDPR specifically states that personal data must be processed under a binding contract, so a breach of that would be a data breach.

Okay, let's see. Since the workloads are reachable, the VPN connection itself seems to be working. I'd start by checking the DNS settings on the on-premises side to make sure the web service is being properly resolved.

In the practice questions, I remember learning that the acquiring company does hold all the assets of the acquired one, so I guess that's the correct term.

I'm a bit confused by all the networking jargon in this question. I'm going to try to break down the key terms and see if I can figure out the core meaning of policing based on that.

This one's tricky. I'm not sure if I should be binding a nested group or users to the group on the Citrix ADC. I'll have to review the LDAP configuration steps to make sure I'm on the right track.

Hmm, this is a tough one. I'm a bit confused by all the different steps involved. I want to make sure I don't miss anything critical that could lead to data loss or extended downtime. Maybe I should review the options a few times to make sure I fully understand the implications of each approach.
