Privacy and Data Protection

icon1 Posted by Julius Azarcon in Privacy, Risk & Compliance on 06 17th, 2008 | no responses

Almost all organizations retain the personal identifiable information of current and former employees or clients. Identity thieves target this information, and legislation mandates action when it’s compromised - but what action? Where is the line drawn between ‘recommended’ and ‘required’? How does a breached company manage the experience and the exposure? While some companies have written policies around handling sensitive personal information, many still don’t.

On Thursday June 26, 2008 I will be hosting an information session on Privacy and Data Protection. The goals of the session include:

  • Privacy Regulations: - A review of the privacy laws, including the Canadian Standards Association Model Code.
  • Customer Expectations - Understanding data collection, use, disclosure, and retention.
  • Clarify the legislated mandates that affect an enterprise’s actions when a breach occurs.
  • Distinguish between mandates that are required and mandates that are “recommended”.
  • Examine how to respond to a data breach and minimize exposure.
  • Examine the value of an internal policy on handling personal information.

    • If this topic interests you, then join us on Thursday June 26, 2008 from 12:00pm - 1:00pm EST. Follow the attached link for registration details:
