The Default-to-More-Sensitive Rule for the CCAO-F Exam

Apply data sensitivity, regulatory, and privacy considerations

SUBy Solomon UdohReviewed by Solomon UdohAI-assisted · human-reviewed
In short
The default-to-more-sensitive rule resolves uncertainty about a data tier: when unsure between two tiers, treat the data as the more sensitive one until it can be confirmed otherwise. This protects against underestimating risk when information about the data's origin is incomplete, and the safe move when sensitivity is unclear is to ask before uploading, not to proceed and correct later.
