Identifying Information means information that alone or in conjunction with other information identifies a person.

• A. Telecommunication access device
• B. Commodity
• C. Identifying Information
• D. Business

Answer: (C)

Identifying information is data that can identify a person, either by itself or when combined with other information. This concept matters because laws about privacy, security, and identity-related offenses hinge on what kinds of data can reveal who someone is. Think of examples like a full name, Social Security number, driver’s license number, or a combination like name plus birth date or address that could pinpoint an individual. The other options don’t describe data that identifies a person: a telecommunication access device is a tool for accessing networks, not identity data; a commodity is a tradable good; a business is an entity. So the term that matches the definition given is identifying information.
