Protecting Privacy in the Digital Age
Course Program / Credits: 0.4 CEU / 4 PDH
Privacy has emerged to be a critical aspect of our increasingly digitized world. Technological innovations are progressively becoming more intrusive into our personal lives attempting to extract sensitive personal information. This is often detrimental to an individual when any breach or spillage of data leads to a severe impact such as financial loss or identity theft. This program, provided in collaboration with IEEE Digital Privacy, an IEEE Future Directions Initiative, aims to provide a better understanding of digital privacy, how we operationalize privacy in an organizational context, how we engineer privacy in our systems, how we make privacy usable for end users, and finally how we address the emergent technological challenges to privacy.
What you will learn:
- Review core concepts of digital privacy
- Consider taxonomy and drivers of privacy
- Examine ethical foundations
