What aspect of data handling is addressed in Week 1 Training Order?

• A. Specifying how data backups should be performed.
• B. Defining data categories, access, retention, and disposal requirements.
• C. Listing data privacy laws applicable to the organization.
• D. Describing the data breach notification process.

Answer: (B)

The question is about establishing a data handling policy that sets how data is managed throughout its life: what data is, who may access it, how long it’s kept, and how it should be disposed of. This combination creates a clear governance framework for data and guides all other data activities, from access controls to retirement and secure destruction. While backups, applicable laws, or incident response are important, they are separate operational or compliance aspects that come after the foundational policy has defined data categories, access, retention, and disposal.
