BCS ISSG Events
ISSG Privacy Day 2012
Thursday 22nd March 2012. To be held at the BCS London Offices.
The privacy day is now a regular fixture in the ISSG's annual programme of events. Led by Ian Fish, ISSG Committee Member and member of the BCS Information Privacy Expert Panel, this meeting will once again bring you an interesting mix of factual briefings and potentially controversial personal opinion.
The keynote presentation will be given by Prof Jim Norton, immediate Past President of the BCS/CIfIT. There will be an update on the EnCoRe project that has been outlined at the previous Privacy Day and news about two other important projects, one about how the public will react to new technologies with ID management and the other relating to privacy in The Cloud. There will also be a case study from the corporate sector.
Further details and a booking form are available on our next event page.
