Which stakeholder in the organization will you most likely interact with if you need more information about the nature of the PII?

When dealing with personal identity information (PII) and the nature of that data, the most relevant stakeholder to interact with is typically the governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) team or department within an organization. The GRC team is usually responsible for understanding the specific requirements and regulations related to PII, assessing the risks associated with its management, and ensuring the organization is in compliance with relevant laws and standards.

Here’s why the other options are less likely:

• Human Resources (HR): While HR does handle PII with respect to employee information, they may not be the primary point of contact for PII stored for other purposes, such as customer data.
• Legal: The legal department may become involved if there are legal implications or potential breaches of legislation, but for understanding the nature of PII and its handling procedures, GRC is typically more directly involved.
• Public Affairs: This department would be more concerned with the communication aspects in case of a data breach or if there is a need to manage the organization’s image or public messaging. They would not typically manage the details of PII storage or processing.
