Computer, Privacy, Data Protection conference CPDP 2009: Data Protection in A Profiled World?
Data protection and privacy increasingly face new challenges posed by technologies and policies as well as society and individual expectations. Identifying and addressing such issues is the main goal of the annual Computer, Privacy, Data Protection (CPDP) conference.
The CPDP Conference aims at bridging policymakers, academics, practitioners and activists to create the most appropriate forum of discussion on key challenges.
It combines informative panels with the latest agenda news from data protection stakeholders and panels with current topics of interests.
The main topic of interest on this year's CDPD Conference Data Protection in A Profiled World is 'profiling and automatic computing'. Other topics are: e-voting and data breaches, e-privacy regulations and surveillance, privacy by design and social networks as well as developments in the JHA area. More than 60 speakers coming from national and international organisations and institutions will intervene on these topics or present annual sessions on the agendas of European and national institutions, US and Canada governments and law firms.
The CPDP has been conceptualised as follow: _ 12 Panel sessions on Friday and Saturday (six recurrent panels and six thematic panels) _ 1 Parallel reading panel for a pre-registered audience _ 1 Pecha Kucha Night: Friday evening event
