Data Innovation Day 2016: Algorithms, Automation, and Public Policy – Center for Data Innovation @ Reserve Officers Association
Oct 19 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm

The steady advancement of artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming our world with a host of emerging innovations such as self-driving cars, automated financial advisers, and expert medical systems. Developers are producing data-intensive computer systems designed to observe, learn, and solve complex problems faster and more accurately than their human counterparts. As these technologies become increasingly mainstream, they promise enormous public benefits including higher productivity, improved health and safety, and fairer decision making. While these technologies have incredible potential to generate economic and social good, these breakthroughs may not occur unless the public and private sectors work in partnership to promote the development and adoption of artificial intelligence, address new regulatory questions, and integrate the technology into agencies at all levels of government.

Join the Center for Data Innovation for a conversation with leading experts on the state of artificial intelligence and machine learning, the efforts by the public and private sectors to support related research and development, and the important policy steps that regulators and lawmakers should make to unlock these new opportunities.

October Privacy Lab on Cyber Security @ StubHub
Oct 20 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

This month, P260px-Privacy-lab-logorivacy Lab will have a cyber security theme for National Cyber Security Awareness Month. Specifically, we’ll be looking at how privacy and security go hand in hand, and how they can work better together to protect consumer and user data.

Allison Miller will speak about using detection technology to protect consumers. Allison has an extensive background in protecting consumers and platforms from online threats. She’ll discuss how it works to reveal security flaws and why it’s crucial for protecting consumer privacy.

We will likely structure the networking time into some small group discussions around the topic of how privacy and security can work together.

Livestream and Recording on Air Mozilla (https://air.mozilla.org/privacy-lab-cyber-security-2016-10-20/) and Passcode.

Conference on Security and Privacy for the Internet of Things @ Princeton University
Oct 21 @ 9:00 am – 4:00 pm

The Internet of Things (IoT) presents opportunities for innovation in domains ranging from smart homes to smart cities. Yet, many IoT devices ship with security flaws that put citizens and consumers at risk, which creates broad issues surrounding the privacy, security, and robustness of IoT. Additionally, the proliferation of IoT devices allows device vendors to collect—and potentially share—an unprecedented amount of data about consumers.

Solutions to these emerging challenges around IoT will require input and collaboration from technologists and policymakers. The CITP Conference on Security and Privacy Policy for the Internet of Things (IoT) will convene experts at the intersection of technology and policy from industry, academia, and civil society to discuss the latest security and privacy issues for the Internet of Things.

For lunch and a nametag please register by Monday, October 17, 2016. If you register after October 17th, you will not be included in the food counts, but please feel free to still attend the conference.

Building a Privacy Governance Program @ Webinar
Oct 21 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm

The proliferation of networked devices is bringing tremendous opportunity to business and consumers alike. Many organizations are struggling with where to start with securing their enterprise — so some don’t, or worse yet, take expensive action that has little impact.

Consumers freely share their personal information with businesses, governments, individuals and on social media platforms expecting progressive, personalized services while demanding and deserving privacy and control of their personal information.

Make sure to save your seat for this webinar to learn how to:

  1. Put security and privacy into the context of your operations – despite their natural tensions
  2. Integrate them into an effective data protection program focused on trust, transparency and accountability
  3. Examine case studies from two companies from very diverse sectors

Register NOW for this webinar to explore the essential common elements of an effective data protection program and some tips for getting your program up and running quickly.

Understanding EU Law, Institutions and Policymaking @ Goethe-Institut / German Cultural Center
Oct 27 @ 9:00 am – 4:00 pm

The goal of this program is to provide privacy experts with a deeper understanding of the broader legal environment in Europe. Who can bring an action, which courts are involved, how do the various national and Europe wide systems interact? We will seek to understand the issues and challenges of privacy law in the EU context. The program will not focus on the specifics of the GDPR, but rather the broader context of EU law, politics and policy that will help privacy and policy leaders of US multi-nationals better understand our partners across the Atlantic.

Preparing for the GDPR: Attaining and Demonstrating Compliance
Nov 3 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

Free IAPP Web Conference

How will you comply with the GDPR? What approach will you take? What resources will you need and where will they come from?

Join us for this virtual discussion to hear an accountability approach for attaining and maintaining GDPR compliance through the “appropriate technical and organizational measures” required by Article 24. Help your organization get a running start by: understanding what accountability infrastructure is in place, identifying the gaps needing remediation, creating strategies for prioritizing; and then knowing how to resource activities that will enable and maintain GDPR compliance. Also to be covered — how existing technical and organizational measures can be mapped to GDPR articles to help achieve another obligation found in Article 24, and, “the ability to demonstrate that processing is performed in accordance with the Regulation.”

What you’ll take away:

  • How to identify the “appropriate technical and organizational measures” required by Article 24.
  • How to address the accountability requirements in the GDPR.
  • An approach to meet the obligation found in Article 24, “the ability to demonstrate that processing is performed in accordance with the Regulation.”
