ASIS Physical Security Professional ASIS-PSP Question # 3 Topic 1 Discussion

The four main types of invasion of privacy recognized under civil law are:

Misappropriation of name or likeness for commercial use (A)

False light (B) — misrepresenting someone publicly

Intrusion upon seclusion (D) — unauthorized intrusion into someone’s private space or affairs

Public disclosure of private facts — not “private disclosure of public facts” as stated in option C

Option C is incorrect because “private disclosure of public facts” is not a valid tort; it reverses the recognized tort, which is “public disclosure of private facts.”
