Episode 32 — Choose infrastructure and platform approaches for privacy across legacy and cloud (Domain 4A-1 Infrastructure and Platform Technology)

This episode explains how infrastructure and platform choices influence privacy outcomes, and how CDPSE questions often test whether you can connect architecture decisions to exposure, control effectiveness, and evidence quality. You’ll compare common patterns across legacy data centers, hybrid environments, and cloud platforms, focusing on where personal information resides, how it moves, and which platform services change your risk profile. We’ll cover practical considerations like segmentation, encryption boundaries, key management responsibilities, logging pipelines, and tenancy concerns, plus how shared responsibility models can create blind spots if governance does not clearly define what the organization must configure and verify. You’ll work through scenarios such as migrating a database to managed cloud services, consolidating identity stores, or enabling cross-region replication, and you’ll practice selecting actions that reduce privacy risk while preserving availability and operational needs.
