Building and Buying Privacy-Aware Applications

by David J. Lineman

More than ever, companies are responsible for ensuring the privacy of the personally identifiable information (PII) in their care. The fact that PII is often in the hands of personnel using powerful mobile computers and storage devices away from corporate facilities only complicates matters. Not surprisingly, information security and privacy incidents are on the rise, along with growing public awareness of them. What is a company to do?

Join us as we visit the thorny world of privacy, a place where overlapping and unclear legal obligations, "situational" customer preferences, technical challenges, and management risks abound. Discover how you can use anonymization techniques to protect sensitive data during storage and transit, when data may be at highest risk of being attacked. Learn how to reduce the risk of a privacy breach by building privacy into applications that manage sensitive data. And while "dead men tell no tales," dead computers do. Find out what you can do to ensure your discarded equipment goes silent to the grave.
