hard · Project Management Professional hybrid
Nimbus Clinics is running a hybrid program where the hardware is predictive and the patient app is adaptive. A consultant departs, and a security audit reveals they accessed restricted patient data. The project manager is pressured by the sponsor to delay reporting until after the next funding gate.
How should the project manager respond?
- Refuse to delay and report the breach through the organization's compliance and ethics channel immediately.
- Meet with the sponsor to explain how the breach affects the project's net present value (NPV).
- Analyze the impact of the data exposure on the current sprint backlog and the hardware deployment schedule.
- Document the sponsor's instruction in the issue log and proceed with the funding gate as planned.
