In a world where data are pervasive and increasingly connected, for security professionals, protecting the privacy of individuals and organizations could be compared to trying to put an octopus into a string bag: a constantly changing, wriggly challenge.

A breach of privacy not only puts the individual and organization at risk, but it can also damage an entire country’s global reputation. For this reason, compliance and privacy laws are updated on an ongoing basis, and privacy professionals must keep up with the changes.

In its simplest form, there are 2 key elements to privacy: the data that must be collected and how those data are protected. In other words, privacy and security are codependent and professionals in each domain must work together to achieve optimal outcomes for an organization.

A panel of experts will discuss the need for an effective Privacy and Security program and where they intersect. They will also discuss what happens when these programs are ineffective or nonexistent and specific steps companies should take to implement them.
