The information security and personal data breach procedures. Incorrect. This is mandatory because it describes the
obligations of the processor regarding the notification of a personal data breach (by the controller) to the supervisory
authority.
The technical and organizational measures implemented. Incorrect. This is mandatory because it describes technical
and organizational measures the processor must take.
Which data are covered by the data processing agreement. Incorrect. This is mandatory because it describes the

date he or she should not have had access to.

breach.
B . The processor must notify the controller of a data breach. The controller must assess the possible risk to the data
subjects.

D . The information needed to access the personal data that have been breached.

for instance the police, do not need to be reported.

requires an estimate of the number of data subjects involved, not their personal data.
