As technology continues to evolve rapidly, the issue of data privacy has become more critical than ever. In a world where digital connectivity has reached new heights, the responsibility to protect personal information has grown in complexity and importance. The year ahead is expected to bring both significant advancements and new challenges in data privacy, paving the way for a future where innovation and security must go hand in hand.
The primary challenges in privacy and data protection at present include:
- Mitigating privacy risks through AI applications
- Utilizing encryption, tokenization, and blockchain for future data protection
- Implementing privacy-enhancing computation systems to safeguard data in use
- Designing a centralized privacy user experience
- Balancing data collection with ethical and legal obligations
- Transitioning to a cookieless era and beyond third-party data
- Addressing privacy concerns in the Metaverse
- Evaluating the "Pay or Okay" approach
To discuss these challenges and develop solutions, we are organizing the 8th Annual Privacy & Data Protection Summit in Berlin, Germany on October 24th and 25th. This cross-industry event will provide an excellent opportunity to connect with top industry professionals and learn about cutting-edge technologies, innovative methodologies, and practical solutions for navigating the challenges and opportunities in today's rapidly changing data security environment.
Here are the key questions our experts will address in this two-day summit:
How do we keep data protected in a tech-driven world?
Recently, the implementation of artificial intelligence, the subsequent AI Act, and updates to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) have introduced significant complexities to data protection and privacy. Additionally, ensuring the privacy of international data transfers has become increasingly challenging.
This summit will explore how organizations like BDO UK LLP, Microsoft, Google, Bär & Karrer, and X are navigating evolving privacy legislation, addressing AI-related privacy concerns and opportunities, guaranteeing privacy in international data transfers, and enhancing collaboration within cross-functional teams.
What are the data privacy essentials in the Digital Era?
The Digital Era presents significant challenges in privacy and data protection, underscoring the need to identify essential requirements. What frameworks are necessary to address the data protection issues arising from emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and the Metaverse?
At our upcoming summit, experts from Generali, TikTok, Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP, and U.S. Bank will address challenges such as the compliance control frameworks relevant to emerging technologies, ethical data collection and utilization in alignment with the new AI Act, and anticipated developments for Data Protection Officers related to the Metaverse.
What is the next chapter of data privacy and protection?
Recent privacy and data regulations are undoubtedly impacting the corporate sector. As companies strive to protect customer data in an increasingly digital and interconnected world, navigating global regulations and addressing ethical concerns will be both crucial and challenging.
Attendees of our summit will have the opportunity to hear the insights from industry leaders from Deutsche Telekom, Unilever, Standard Chartered, and Diageo on initiatives aimed at enhancing customer privacy protection, the development of a global privacy team and its impact, as well as navigating the ethical considerations surrounding data collection, management, and protection in the digital age.
What is the future of data security?
As we explore the future of data security, it is important to identify the overarching themes in cybersecurity. What are the anticipated developments over the next decade, particularly regarding children's privacy, next-generation data protection, and containing data breaches?
At this summit, experts from Restaurant Brands International Inc, PLMJ, Linklaters, Eaton, and The Scottish Public Sector will discuss security challenges and share their strategies for addressing them. These include safeguarding minors' privacy, implementing privacy-preserving data linkage and computation through cryptographic methods, and exploring the potential of artificial intelligence in accelerating the containment of data breaches.
To remain proactive in addressing both immediate and long-term data protection challenges, attending the 8th Annual Privacy & Data Protection Summit is essential. This summit will offer valuable practical insights and outstanding networking opportunities.
