A social media company based in North America is looking to expand into new global markets and needs to maintain compliance with international standards. With which of the following is the company's data protection officer MOST likely concerned?
There are 27 member countries of the European Union (EU) you will expand your market globally even if your EU client are in different countries outside eurpoe like USA the GDPR law applies, second thing the question states the concerns of "Data protection Officer" not CISO. The answer is "C" feel free to share otherwise
GDPR focuses on data protection while ISO 27001 is more for general information security. Plus GDPR is the strictest in the world, so if a company follows that then they will automatically comply with every other country in the world.
Global Market is not the only criteria in the question. DPO's concern in that kind of scenario should be the GDPR when it is also highly possible expanding to Europe etc.
No one is deciding the question. The point is that ISO compliance isn't mandatory, while GDPR is. The "World Market" includes Europe and if even a single customer is in the EU then it applies to the company. It's GDPR
ISO 27001 is broad and covers many other aspects of Information Security, unlike the GDPR, which deals with PII, and that should be the primary concern of the DPO of a Social Media company. Also, GDPR is extraterritorial, and wherever you go in the "global" market, you will always be concerned about any European citizen living there as they are still covered by GDPR regardless of the territory.

Based on "Data protection officer":
"GDPR directly focuses on compliance with data protection regulations, making GDPR the most appropriate choice in that context."
Based on "North America is looking to expand into new global markets":
"GDPR applies not only to organizations based within the European Union (EU) but also to organizations outside the EU that process the personal data of individuals within the EU. Therefore, if the social media company based in North America is expanding into global markets, including those within the EU, it would need to ensure compliance with GDPR to handle the personal data of EU residents appropriately."
This was tricky, but I'm going with (C) GDPR.
The data protection officer (DPO) is a
role identified in the GDPR. This person is responsible for
ensuring the organization is complying with all relevant laws. This
person in this role also needs to act as an independent advocate for
customer data.
The question asks about international standards.
GDPR is an EU regulation.
ISO/IEC 27001 is an international standard to manage information security published by the International Organization for Standardization.
I think GDPR is wrong on two accounts. 1) GDPR is not a standard, it is a regulation. 2)The question does not mention Europe. It mentions global expansion. ISO 27001 is relevant outside Europe and is a standard.
"A FYI --> With which of the following is the company's data protection officer MOST likely concerned?"
DPO aka Data Protection Officer is explicitly required in the GDPR (Articles 37-39). For that, I have to go with C. Don't get fooled by "international standard" it is a good catch, but also catch the key word(s) in the proposed question. Good luck everyone!
GDPR focuses on data protection while ISO 27001 is more for general information security. Plus GDPR is the strictest in the world, so if a company follows that then they will automatically comply with every other country in the world.
ISO 27001 is the world’s best-known standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It provides companies of any size and from all sectors of activity with guidance for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information security management system
