What is the purpose of a data protection audit by the supervisory authority?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

To advise the controller on the mitigation of privacy risks to protect the controller from liability claims for non-compliance. Incorrect. The supervisory authority has the task to monitor compliance and to advise on enhancements, but its purpose is not to protect the controller.

To fulfill the obligation in the GDPR to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures for data protection. Incorrect. The audit is not the implementation of the measures, but an assessment of the effectiveness of them.

To monitor and enforce the application of the GDPR by assessing that processing is performed in compliance with the GDPR. Correct. According to the GDPR this is an important task of a supervisory authority. (Literature: A, Chapter 7; GDPR Article 57 (1)(a))

Haha, the supervisory authority is like the GDPR police. They're not there to be your privacy consultant, that's for sure!

C makes the most sense to me. The audit is there to help the controller avoid liability, not just to monitor compliance.

I'm going with B. The GDPR requires the controller to implement appropriate measures, and the audit is to verify that.
