ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question
Your organization stores archived customer emails, live-chat transcripts, and scanned PDF contracts in a document management system. When defining data protection requirements, which data type classification should the security architect assign to these artifacts so that appropriate content-inspection and encryption controls are chosen?
Unstructured data consisting of free-form content
Reference metadata used solely for indexing
Structured data stored within a fixed relational schema
Time-series transactional data generated by sensors
Emails, chat transcripts, and scanned PDFs do not conform to a rigid relational schema; their format and length vary from one record to the next. Because they lack a predefined structure and must be examined with content-aware tools, they are classified as unstructured data. Structured data and time-series transactional data reside in fixed fields or sensor records, while metadata refers only to descriptive index fields and is not the actual document content.
