ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

Your U.S.-based company is rolling out a customer-data retention control for a SaaS offering that will serve EU residents. To ensure the implementation strategy aligns simultaneously with internal policy, GDPR, and the NIST SP 800-53 moderate baseline, which action is the most effective first step?

  • Submit a capital funding request to purchase additional storage capacity for longer retention periods.

  • Enroll system administrators in data-retention training so they understand the new procedures.

  • Schedule a change control board session to add the retention control to the project timeline.

  • Create a Data Retention Mapping Matrix that links each policy, GDPR, and NIST SP 800-53 retention obligation to specific implementation tasks.
