Your company was recently the victim of a security breach. The breach targeted the HR department and compromised personnel files containing full names, addresses, and social security numbers. What classification of regulated data was exposed?
PII
PHI
HIPAA
PPE
Personally identifiable information (PII) is any data that can be used to identify a specific person. This includes a combination of information such as full names, addresses, and Social Security numbers. The scenario describes a classic case of a PII breach. PHI (Protected Health Information) is incorrect as no medical data was mentioned. PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) relates to physical safety equipment, not data. HIPAA is the name of a US law that governs the use of PHI, not a type of data itself.
