ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

An EU-based retailer is migrating its customer loyalty database to a public SaaS provider. During an enterprise risk review, senior management asks which rule mandates how quickly the organization must tell a government authority if the stored personal data is breached. Which statement most accurately reflects that regulatory transparency requirement?

  • Under PCI DSS, any compromise of cardholder data must always be reported to the card brands within 48 hours, regardless of circumstances.

  • Under the EU GDPR, the data controller must notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of a personal data breach, unless the breach is unlikely to pose a risk to individuals.

  • Under Sarbanes-Oxley, public companies must report any security breach that could affect financial data to the U.S. SEC within 24 hours of discovery.

  • Under HIPAA, a cloud provider acting as a business associate must inform the covered entity of any unsecured PHI breach within 8 hours of detection.
