When is it necessary to conduct a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA)?

After launching a new website feature
Before implementing cybersecurity measures
Prior to developing or obtaining an IT system or process involving personally identifiable information
At the discretion of the IT team

The correct answer is: Prior to developing or obtaining an IT system or process involving personally identifiable information

A Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) is necessary to be conducted prior to developing or obtaining an IT system or process involving personally identifiable information to assess the privacy risks and implications associated with the new system or process. This helps organizations to identify and address potential privacy concerns proactively, ensuring that privacy is integrated into the design of information systems. Conducting a PIA before the development or acquisition of IT systems or processes involving personal data is essential in promoting privacy by design and compliance with data protection regulations.
