FOSI Roundtable: Connected Families @ London | London | England | United Kingdom

This invite only roundtable will explore the extent to which household objects, toys, cars and personal assistants are infused with AI and connected to the cloud.   We will look at the possible safety, security and privacy risks and potential harms while emphasizing the far-reaching benefits and rewards of connected homes & devices, particularly for children and young people.  And there will be a  discussion about the policy implications and outline existing or proposed legislation and regulation in this space on both sides of the Atlantic.

The roundtable will consider examples of industry best practice and explore areas for improvement. And we will consider what is required to inform consumers, particularly parents, of the potential risks while presenting the positives to be gained.  Finally, we will look at the future of what is needed in this space to help maximize the benefits and inform governments, the media, and parents to help attendees think about practices, strategies, and messaging.

Connected Cars: Privacy, Security Issues Related to Connected, Automated Vehicles @ Washington, DC
Jun 28 all-day
Connected Cars: Privacy, Security Issues Related to Connected, Automated Vehicles @ Washington, DC | Washington | District of Columbia | United States

The Federal Trade Commission and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) will hold a workshop on June 28, 2017 in Washington, D.C., to examine the consumer privacy and security issues posed by automated and connected motor vehicles.

The workshop will feature opening remarks by Acting FTC Chairman Maureen K. Ohlhausen and will bring together a variety of stakeholders, including industry representatives, consumer advocates, academics, and government regulators, to discuss various issues related to connected and automated vehicles that collect data. They include:

  • the types of data vehicles with wireless interfaces collect, store, transmit, and share;
  • potential benefits and challenges posed by such data collection;
  • the privacy and security practices of vehicle manufacturers;
  • the role of the FTC, NHTSA, and other government agencies regarding privacy and security issues related to connected vehicles; and
  • self-regulatory standards that might apply to privacy and security issues related to connected vehicles.

Modern motor vehicles increasingly are being equipped with technologies that enable them to access information via the Internet and gather, store and transmit data for entertainment, performance and safety purposes. Automated vehicles, vehicles with Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communications technology, and other connected vehicles (i.e. with some form of wireless connectivity) can provide important benefits to consumers and have the potential to revolutionize motor vehicle safety. At the same time, these automated and connected vehicles are expected to generate an enormous amount of data, some of which will be personal and sensitive, such as real time precise geolocation data and the contents of driver communications that result when drivers connect their mobile phones to a vehicle’s computer system. The workshop will explore the consumer privacy and security issues that automated and connected vehicles pose.

The FTC and NHTSA invite comments from the public on the topics this workshop will cover. For further information on the workshop and the public comment process, including a list of suggested questions open for comment, please see the workshop’s detailed public notice.

The workshop, which is free and open to the public, will be at the FTC’s Constitution Center, 400 7th St., SW, Washington, DC. It will be webcast live on the FTC’s website. Registration information, an agenda, directions to the FTC’s Constitution Center building, and a list of speakers will be available in the near future on the event webpage. Advance registration is not required but is strongly encouraged.

‘Trans-Atlantic data privacy relations as a challenge for democracy’, edited by Dan Svantesson and Dariusz Kloza (Intersentia, 2017) is inspired by the Snowden affaire and the fall of Safe Harbor. The book explores a wider picture of data privacy protection in relations between Europe and Americas as a challenge for democracy, the rule of law (Rechtsstaat) and fundamental rights. The book launch will take the shape of panel discussions amongst its many authors as well as invited experts. It will look into these relations through the lens of human rights protection and the role of the new data privacy law in the European Union. Michal Boni MEP will join with a keynote on the future of trans-Atlantic data privacy relations from the European Parliament’s viewpoint.

Does the GDPR Require PIAs? Answer: Only Sometimes @ Online Event
Jun 29 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am
Does the GDPR Require PIAs? Answer: Only Sometimes @ Online Event
Many privacy officers are under the impression that the GDPR requires organisations to conduct PIAs and that doing so will largely meet their GDPR compliance obligations. This is not the case. The GDPR is an accountability-based regulation and requires organisations to demonstrate compliance with all aspects of the GDPR: over 39 Articles require a technical or organisational measure to demonstrate compliance and Article 35 on data protection impact assessments is only one of them. Furthermore, DPIAs are required in only limited circumstances: when the processing is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

In this webinar, learn about Nymity’s latest compliance innovation: an expert system that, when subject to GDPR, enables organisations to leverage their existing accountability mechanisms, meet their obligations under Article 30 (Records of processing activities) and, when DPIA-Triggered™, under Article 35 GDPR (Data Protection Impact Assessments). Understand how the burdensome traditional step of lengthy or incomplete questionnaires is avoided and how the solution enables organisations to carry out more data processing activities with the same data, within the boundaries of the law. In addition, you will learn how this solution provides the business a defensible position of evidenced compliance. In this webinar we will review:

1. The overlap between accountability and traditional PIA frameworks
2. Repurposing Article 30 GDPR to enable Data Protection Impact Assessments under Article 35 GDPR
3. The power of automating the Accountability PIA Framework
Step 1: Benefits to Individuals
Step 2: Mitigating risk using accountability mechanisms
Step 3: Effectiveness Assessments
4. Accountability PIAs™ under the GDPR
