Privacy and Data Protection by Design - from policy to engineering

Understand

Privacy and data protection constitute core values of individuals and of democratic societies.

• There have been decades of debate on how those values -and legal obligations- can be embedded into systems, preferably from the very beginning of the design process.
• One important element in this endeavour are technical mechanisms, known as privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs).
• Their effectiveness has been demonstrated by researchers and in pilot implementations.
