Question

As a precaution, legal has advised a legal hold on all documents for an unspecified period of time. Which of the following policies will MOST likely be violated? (Select TWO).

Options

  • AData Storage Policy
  • BData Retention Policy
  • CCorporate Confidentiality Policy
  • DData Breach Mitigation Policy
  • ECorporate Privacy Policy

Explanation

A legal hold requires preserving all relevant data indefinitely, which directly conflicts with two policies. (A) Data Storage Policy: organizations typically set storage limits and require cleanup of old files; a legal hold forces retention of data well beyond those quotas, violating storage caps. (B) Data Retention Policy: retention policies define how long data must be kept and, critically, when it must be deleted (e.g., 'delete after 7 years'). A legal hold suspends the deletion schedule, violating the policy's destruction timeline. Option C (Corporate Confidentiality) is not directly violated - the data stays internal. Option D (Data Breach Mitigation) is unrelated to a legal hold. Option E (Corporate Privacy) is not inherently violated by preserving data internally for litigation purposes.
