Conference for Privacy Professionals to
put heads in the cloud - 30th November 2010
Sydney
Privacy and IT professionals will
have their heads in the cloud in November when they gather – in
person – to discuss privacy and cloud computing at the third
annual conference of the International Association of Privacy
Professionals Australia and New Zealand (iappANZ).
iappANZ’s one-day
conference, "Silver Lining: The Privacy Umbrella of Cloud Computing"
will be held in Sydney with debate, information sharing and discussion
among professionals dealing with or exploring the ubiquitous
‘cloud’.
According to
iappANZ’s President, Kevin Shaw, privacy professionals from small,
medium and large-sized organisations are coming face-to-face with the
privacy challenges of operating in the cloud.
"Cloud computing is
something every privacy professional in Australia and New Zealand is
dealing with either directly or indirectly, which is why it’s
critical that we gather together and share our experiences," Mr Shaw
said.
"The cloud is being used
to store everything from school reports and health records to employee
details and customer service transactions, and as the data in the cloud
grows so does the role of the privacy professional."
The conference is the
only dedicated privacy and cloud-computing event in the ASEAN region
– bringing together privacy professionals from across government,
private, education and healthcare sectors, along with leading IT
experts.
A stimulating mix of
international keynote speakers including Dr. Larry
Ponemon, expert-led forums and exhibitions will provide
attendees with an insight into the wide-ranging approaches being taken
by government, advocacy groups, business and professional
practitioners.
It’s also a
perfect opportunity to network, share ideas and learn from other privacy
professionals including leaders in cloud computing. Topics up for
discussion will include:
-
- framing and analysing the issues of
privacy and confidentiality in the cloud in the Asia-Pacific
region
- providing practical tips and insight
on how to identify and assess the privacy risks of a cloud computing
proposal
- providing advice on when and how an
organisation can share personal information with a cloud service
provider
- highlighting what the cloud may mean
for an organisation’s privacy statements and privacy
policies
- explaining some of the consequences
related to the security of personal information when stored in the
cloud.

Knowledge Sharing and
Networking Meetings
The iappANZ holds quarterly meetings to provide a
forum for members to meet regularly to share information and network
with each other. The meetings are based around a presentation from a
prominent speaker from government, a regulator, or a technology,
academic or legal expert. The objective of the presentations is to help
members keep up to date with the rapidly changing environment that
Privacy Professionals work in. The presentations are followed by
refreshments courtesy of the host and an opportunity to network with
other members.
Members of iappANZ are welcome to bring interested
guests to attend these meetings.
Privacy After Hours
What is Privacy After Hours?
Privacy After Hours (PAH) was created by the IAPP to help
privacy professionals get to know other local privacy pros. It's a
chance to network and socialize in a casual setting at an event
organized by a volunteer host in your community.
Who should attend?
Privacy professionals and anyone out there who works in or is interested
in privacy! The majority of PAH attendees are professionals involved
with the use and protection of personal information, including IT,
legal, information security, compliance, marketing (customer
information) and human resources (employee information). IAPP membership
is not required.
What should we discuss at PAH events?
Whatever you want! This is your opportunity to get to know other privacy
professionals in your area and learn about their jobs and other
interests.
Who pays for PAH events?
Individuals are responsible for their own expenses. These events are not
sponsored or financially supported in any way by the IAPP.
