Episode 9 — Define privacy roles, culture, and responsibilities so accountability is real (Domain 1B-1 Organizational Culture, Structure, and Responsibilities)
This episode breaks down organizational roles and responsibilities that support effective privacy engineering, and it shows how CDPSE tests accountability through governance structure and operating rhythm. You’ll define what “ownership” means for data, systems, controls, and decisions, and how to make responsibilities auditable through RACI-style clarity, escalation paths, and decision logs. We’ll explore culture as a control amplifier or control killer, using examples like rushed launches, unclear approval gates, and teams that treat privacy as a legal-only problem. You’ll learn best practices for aligning privacy with security, product, and operations, and how to troubleshoot when no one owns a dataflow, vendors are unmanaged, or exceptions become the default.
