Restricting access to authorized users is the best control to secure application programming interfaces (APIs) that may contain personal information, as it would prevent unauthorized access, modification or disclosure of the personal information by third parties or intermediaries. Restricting access to authorized users can be achieved by using various methods, such as authentication, authorization, encryption, tokens or certificates. The other options are not effective controls to secure APIs that may contain personal information. Encrypting APIs with the organization’s private key is not a feasible or desirable method, as it would make the APIs unreadable by anyone who does not have the corresponding public key, which would defeat the purpose of using APIs for interoperability and integration. Requiring nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) when sharing APIs is not a reliable or enforceable method, as it would depend on the compliance and cooperation of the parties who receive the APIs, and it would not prevent unauthorized access, modification or disclosure of the personal information by third parties or intermediaries who are not bound by the NDAs. Sharing only digitally signed APIs is not a sufficient method, as it would only ensure the authenticity and integrity of the APIs, but it would not prevent unauthorized access, modification or disclosure of the personal information by third parties or intermediaries who can read or intercept the APIs1, p. 90-91 References: 1: CDPSE Review Manual (Digital Version)

A data inventory is a comprehensive list of the data that an organization collects, processes, stores, transfers, and disposes of. It includes information such as the type, source, location, owner, purpose, and retention period of the data. A data inventory is essential for understanding where personal data is coming from and how it is used within the organization, as well as for complying with data privacy laws and regulations. A data inventory also helps to identify and mitigate data privacy risks and gaps.

One of the most common vulnerabilities that can compromise the access to personal information is end users using weak passwords. Weak passwords are passwords that are easy to guess, crack, or steal, such as passwords that are short, simple, common, or reused. Weak passwords can allow unauthorized or malicious parties to gain access to personal information and cause privacy breaches, leaks, or misuse. Multi-factor authentication is an effective way to mitigate this vulnerability, as it requires end users to provide more than one piece of evidence to verify their identity, such as something they know (e.g., password), something they have (e.g., token), or something they are (e.g., biometric). Multi-factor authentication makes it harder for attackers to bypass the authentication process and access personal information. References: : CDPSE Review Manual (Digital Version), page 107
