Mobility has brought privacy to the forefront. Increasingly, organizations are providing new services and conducting new business on mobile devices. And regulators such as the Federal Trade Commission have offered new guidelines specific to ensuring privacy protections for the users of mobile devices.
This enhanced focus on privacy forces security leaders to answer fundamental questions:
- How does the organization currently use, store and protect personal information to prevent a data breach?
- And should a breach occur, how would the organization respond and ensure the ongoing protection of this information?
These are privacy questions that increasingly play a role in organizations' breach prevention and response strategies. And to be effective, security leaders better know the answers - from a privacy officer's unique perspective.
At McAfee, Chief Privacy Officer Michelle Dennedy understands the necessity of taking proactive steps to protect privacy and to work with security to minimize the risk and impact of a data breach.
In this webinar, Dennedy leads an important discussion about the fundamental differences in the roles played by privacy and information security professionals, as well as their mutual understanding of data security. She also discusses the key elements of implementing a unified privacy policy, and effective actions a security officer can take to improve privacy practices within the organization. Dennedy also discusses:
- Fostering Privacy: by initiating a cultural transformation within organizations on how employees treat and store data;
- Collaboration of Privacy and Security: in building the right team, establishing accountabilities and initiating in-depth privacy awareness programs;
- Breach Response: by understanding the top privacy risks, breach impact, legislative rules and actions to be taken in the event of a breach.
