| Abstract | This course provides an in-depth look into privacy laws and regulations as well as into technologies for achieving privacy in an electronic world. |
| Objective | |
| Content | Privacy issues have been the subject of public debates since years. In particular, as new technologies are developed, they increasingly raise privacy concerns - the World Wide Web, wireless location-based services, and RFID chips are just a few examples. Thus, the need for privacy-aware policies, regulations, and techniques has been widely recognized by law makers, regulators, and the media. As a result, businesses are under pressure to draft privacy policies, chief privacy officers are becoming essential members of many organizations, and companies are taking pro-active steps to avoid the potential reputation damage of a privacy mistake.This course provides an in-depth look into privacy laws and regulations as well as into technologies for achieving privacy in an electronic world. |
