Episode 60 — Collaborate with stakeholders to resolve privacy compliance gaps and risk responses (Task 11)
This episode teaches how to collaborate with stakeholders to resolve compliance gaps and select appropriate risk responses, because CDPSE often tests your ability to move from problem identification to coordinated, durable improvement. You’ll learn how to frame gaps in terms of control intent and evidence, then engage the right owners across legal, security, engineering, product, and operations to agree on scope, timelines, and success criteria. We’ll cover practical approaches for resolving recurring issues like inconsistent retention, missing data flow documentation, weak consent enforcement, uncontrolled third-party sharing, or delayed data subject request handling, emphasizing tradeoffs that are realistic without sacrificing defensibility. You’ll also practice how to document acceptance decisions when risk cannot be eliminated quickly, including ownership, rationale, compensating controls, and re-evaluation triggers, so exam answers reflect accountable governance rather than vague “fix it later” plans.
