GDPR Help! Roundtables – Session 3: On The Starting Blocks @ United Kingdom
Mar 28 @ 9:00 am – 5:30 pm
GDPR Help! Roundtables - Session 3: On The Starting Blocks @ United Kingdom | England | United Kingdom
This series of 3 one day roundtables for peer group exchange will focus on managing the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance process. Regulators and policy makers will not be invited to these roundtables.

Whatever happens with Brexit, your organisation will continue to trade with some of the 30 countries in the European Economic Area and you need to ensure that your organisation is complying with the GDPR. The emphasis will be on sharing experience to help you organise and manage the process rather than giving legal advice on the impact of the GDPR.

Hosts will report on progress in their organisations. In addition, you should expect to discuss your plans with the group. Everyone learns and benefits from this participatory process. Each Roundtable will be limited to 25 people to facilitate discussion in a relaxed atmosphere. Lunch is included at each Roundtable, ideal for networking.

GDPR HELP! ROUNDTABLES – Session 3: On The Starting Blocks

Date: 28 March 2018, 09.00h.-17.30h.
Host: Andrew Southam, General Counsel, KrolLDiscovery, UK
Location: KrolLDiscovery near City Thameslink Station, London

Programme:
– Do you really know where all your personal data is located?

Registration:

Managing Privacy Risks when Sharing Health Data @ Toronto
Apr 3 @ 2:00 pm – 3:15 pm
Managing Privacy Risks when Sharing Health Data @ Toronto | Ottawa | Ontario | Canada

There are many benefits to making health data
available for secondary purposes, such as academic
research and drug development. One legal basis for
doing so is to obtain patient consent, however, this
has a number of practical challenges. The main
alternative legal basis is to de-identify the data. This
presentation will describe risk-based de-identification
techniques that have been in use for more than a
decade globally to de-identify health data. The basic
principle is to balance the risk of identity disclosure
with data utility that would facilitate beneficial uses of
the data. Methodological as well as practical
considerations will be discussed.

The 33rd ACM/SIGAPP Symposium On Applied Computing @ Pau
Apr 9 – Apr 13 all-day
The 33rd ACM/SIGAPP Symposium On Applied Computing @ Pau | Pau | Nouvelle-Aquitaine | France
==============
CALL FOR PAPERS
==============
**************************************
Privacy by Design in Practice Track at the
33rd ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
**************************************
The Symposium
———————
For over thirty years has the ACM  Symposium on Applied Computing been a primary gathering forum for  applied computer scientists, computer engineers, software engineers, and  application developers from around the world. SAC 2018 is sponsored by  the ACM Special Interest Group on Applied Computing (SIGAPP 
www.acm.org/sigapp). Its proceedings are published by ACM; they are also available on the web through the ACM Digital Library www.acm.org/dl. More information about SAC 2018 can be found at www.sigapp.org/sac/sac2018/. 

The Privacy by Design in Practice track
—————————————————
The aim of this track  is to promote research on privacy-preserving technologies to be used in  practice. “Privacy by Design” is a requirement in the new EU data  protection regulation, which will be applied in the EU countries from  May 2018. Thus, privacy needs to be considered by engineers from the  beginning and built in to newly developed systems properly. 
The track seeks  submissions from academia, industry and public authorities (e.g. data  protection agencies) presenting novel research on how to implement  Privacy by Design in practice. Examples of successful projects where  Privacy by Design has been implemented in practice are especially  welcome. Legal researchers  bringing in their view on Privacy by Design are also very welcome to  submit papers to this track to foster multi-disciplinary research. 

Topics of the track include, but are not limited to:
 Privacy Engineering
 Privacy-enhancing Technologies
– Anonymization and Pseudonymization
 Privacy in the Internet of Things (e.g. Smart Home, Smart City, Connected Cars, Smart TV, Smart Grid, etc.)
 Privacy and Quantified Self
 Privacy Laws and their impacts on technology
– Conflict between Privacy and Security

Information is power. And wherever there’s power, there are people looking to steal it. But that’s also where you’ll find us. We’re RSA Conference. And we’re here to stand against cyberthreats around the world.

That means being here for you. Connecting you with the people and insights that will empower you to stay ahead of cyberthreats. We do this through our online outreach and with our events around the globe. And we make a great host, if we do say so ourselves.

We’re here. Where are you?

Not to brag, but collectively our conferences draw over 50,000 attendees per year, more than any other conference out there. Why? Two words. Valuable content. And the networking. And the inspiration. Ok so that’s more than two words. It’s hard not to get carried away because we’re so passionate about finding new industry voices and new ways for our community to feel inspired and engaged.

So, want to be better prepared for tomorrow’s challenges? Connect with RSA Conference today. You’ll feel smarter for doing it.
