What is the relationship between data and information?
A . Data is structured information.
B . Information is the meaning and value assigned to a collection of data.

Answer: B

Explanation:

The relationship between data and information is that information is the meaning and value assigned to a collection of data. Data is a set of facts, figures, symbols or characters that can be processed by a computer or other means. Data by itself has no inherent meaning or context. Information is data that has been processed, organized, interpreted or presented in a way that makes it useful or meaningful for a specific purpose or audience. Information can be used to convey knowledge, support decision making or communicate messages. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 defines data as “representation of facts, concepts or instructions in a formalized manner suitable for communication, interpretation or processing by humans or by automatic means” (see clause 3.12) and information as “meaningful data” (see clause 3.25).
