Data Privacy and Security Summit @ Washington, D.C.
Jan 30 – Feb 1 all-day
Data Privacy and Security Summit @ Washington, D.C.

The Data Privacy & Security Summit is your complete and essential roadmap to implementing the GDPR, harmonizing your global privacy program and preparing to protect against cyber threats. This is an especially unique summit as it allows you to gain real take-aways from your peers with the limited presence of vendors.

After successful Privacy & Data Protection Officers Summits in London and Paris, we are happy to be running an event focused on the challenges of the US. In London and Paris, privacy officers gained practical strategies for GDPR implementation from in-house privacy professionals, regulators and from their peers.

The new regulation puts increased responsibility on privacy and information security professionals. Depending on the size and scope of your organization, the role of the privacy officer can vary; in some cases the privacy officer role covers a diverse range of responsibilities beyond data privacy and in other instances, the role focuses on the security elements of the organization.

With this in mind, this summit allows you to hear from your privacy peers both from the US and EU, to find out where they are in the process and to gain valuable and practical guidance, solutions and key strategies on ensuring your privacy program is compliant.

Only 4 months out from when all companies must be GDPR compliant, you won’t want to miss your opportunity to benchmark privacy and security strategies with your peers.

The summit will focus on:
  1. Benchmarking Key Strategies with Your Privacy Peers. Gain insight in an intimate learning environment with limited presence from vendors and consultants.
  2. Understanding How the GDPR Will Change the Way You Do Business. Regulators and  privacy professionals will break down what the regulation actually means and which areas you should be focusing on to ensure compliance.
  3. Apply Lessons Learned from Recent Cyber Attacks. Learning how effective risk assessment can lead to a strong cyber security program.
  4. Harmonizing Your Global Privacy Program. We’re taking a closer look at what some of the most successful CPOs are doing to create a globally harmonized privacy program.

GDPR Help! Roundtables – Session 2: Managing Risk @ United Kingdom
Jan 31 @ 9:00 am – 5:30 pm
GDPR Help! Roundtables - Session 2: Managing Risk @ 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.

TrustArc Webinar: Best Practices for Managing Individual Rights under the GDPR @ Online
Feb 14 @ 8:00 am – 9:00 am
TrustArc Webinar: Best Practices for Managing Individual Rights under the GDPR @ Online
Insights and best practices for managing individual rights under the GDPR.

The GDPR introduces new individual rights for consumers such as the right of deletion, rectification and data portability – and non-compliance can lead to the highest level of fines. Many regulators are planning consumer campaigns that are likely to increase awareness and action on these new data subject access rights once the GDPR comes into effect on May 26th. What are your obligations? What volume of requests should a company prepare for? What best practices and tools are available to support these new requirements?

This webinar will provide insights and best practices for managing individual rights under the GDPR. *IAPP CPE credits available*

Can’t make it? Register anyway – we’ll automatically send you an email with both the slides and recording after the webinar!
