Organizations Must Consider Privacy Harms
Tuesday, May 12th, 2015Every Organization with Personal Information Needs to Do a Privacy Impact Assessment
Thursday, December 11th, 2014Today I had a great meeting with Sarah Cortes, with whom I am doing a session at the North America CACS ISACA conference in March. (I see I need to ask them to add Sarah’s name!)
I’m also going to teach a 2-day workshop (~4 hours each day), “Conducting A Privacy Impact Assessment” on March 18 & 19.
Every organization that handles personal information (PI) of any kind or form needs to know how to do a privacy impact assessment (PIA). And if you have PI from any type of individual, be it a customer, patient, employee, contractor, job applicant, etc., you need to make sure you are protecting, using and sharing the PI appropriately. A PIA will reveal where you are at risk with meeting your privacy obligations. Attend my PIA class in March and I will be happy to help you know how, or improve upon how you perform PIAs!
Can’t go to the conference for some reason? I can still help you! I have a PIA Toolkit you can use.
Any questions? Let me know!
