Explanation
The 'Data Security' area of data governance focuses on protecting data from unauthorized access, ensuring encryption protocols are in place, and defining access control mechanisms such as RBAC. Responsibilities like ensuring data quality and tracking lineage fall under other areas of governance, not 'Data Security'.
- A. Correct.
Defining access control policies is a key responsibility under the 'Data Security' area as it ensures that only authorized users can access specific data resources.
- B. Incorrect.
Ensuring data quality is not part of 'Data Security'; it falls under the 'Data Quality' area of governance.
- C. Correct.
Establishing encryption protocols is directly related to the 'Data Security' area, as it protects sensitive data from unauthorized access during storage and transmission.
- D. Incorrect.
Tracking data origin and lineage is part of the 'Data Lineage' area of governance, not 'Data Security'.
- E. Correct.
Implementing role-based access controls (RBAC) is a critical part of 'Data Security' as it defines how various user groups can interact with the data.
