Please join the IAPP at the upcoming KnowledgeNet and learn how the U.S. Department of Homeland Security plays a major role in leading information sharing efforts, including private sector cybersecurity information sharing.
KnowledgeNets are a benefit exclusively for IAPP members. They are free networking meetings that provide the privacy community an opportunity to network, make acquaintances and share ideas. Guests and nonmembers are welcome to attend one KnowledgeNet meeting as space allows.
Please join Patrick Ball, executive director of the Human Rights Data Analysis Group, for a conversation about data, rights, and justice. Data can seem to offer insights into patterns: Is mass violence getting better, or worse, over time? Is violence directed more against men or women? However, in human rights data collection, we (usually) don’t know what we don’t know—and worse, what we don’t know may be systematically different from what we think we do know.

Technology in education has the potential to revolutionize learning. Yet the adoption of new technology requires consumer trust. This is especially true when considering the privacy of students’ data collected by education technologies. Recently, we have witnessed increased activity around student privacy legislation. Over 170 state student privacy bills have been introduced in 2015, the White House announced its student privacy legislative proposal in January, and Congress is currently considering multiple student privacy bills.
Join the Center for Democracy & Technology, members of Congress, advocates, and industry leaders for a briefing on the paths forward for national student privacy law and policy.
You are invited to join SIIA for lunch and a discussion about the Judicial Redress Act of 2015 (H.R. 1428).

Bill sponsors Reps. Sensenbrener and Conyers will provide introductory remarks, followed by a panel discussion featuring the technology industry and civil society discussing the need for expanded judicial redress.
PLSC assembles privacy law scholars and practitioners from around the world to discuss current issues and foster greater connections between academia and practice.

The eighth Workshop on Security and Human Behavior (SHB) brings together computer scientists, security engineers, economists, psychologists, and other scholars interested in understanding security and human behavior. The Workshop’s goal is to discuss, in an informal and interdisciplinary setting, issues where security, psychological, and behavioral sciences interact. The scope is broad: topics we covered in the past include the misperception of risk, security usability, deception, security and privacy decision making – and so forth.
In light of recent high-profile data breaches and continuing questions about the future direction of surveillance, cybersecurity and protecting data privacy of students, it’s more important than ever for everyone – policy makers, industry, government, teachers, students, families and more – to talk about strategies to make the Internet and Internet users safer.
This briefing is a widely attended educational event as defined under the House and Senate ethics rules.
Join the IAPP and Center for Democracy & Technology for a co-hosted panel discussion and networking reception. Leading women in privacy will discuss this emerging profession where success is based on experience and merit. The results of the IAPP 2015 Privacy Professionals Salary Survey will also be released.
