Description
Privacy issues have been the subject of public debates since years. In
particular, as new technologies are developed, they increasingly raise privacy
concerns - the Web 2.0, 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.
Prerequisites. Basic knowledge of cryptology is recommended to follow some of the topics of the course.
