Users are becoming more privacy aware, privacy regulations are being implemented all over the world, and the risk of losing personal information is increased with the rise of ransomware attacks, misconfigured services or unintentional information sharing. The time of protecting personal information is behind us, it clearly didn’t work out the way we envisioned it.
A privacy by design approach is necessary to limit the amount of personal information we collect, keep, and distribute. In this workshop I will explain the basic concepts of privacy by design, show examples of implementing a privacy centric approach on existing applications, and compare solutions where the risk of privacy information loss was limited with those where the same risks were kept as-is.
Start making privacy your asset and become a trusted brand with your customers where you take an opportunity of putting privacy front and center. By the end of this workshop you will understand how you can still run a successful digital business by applying a good privacy by design approach in your software development process.
