Privacy by Design, with Ann Cavoukian, Global Privacy and Security by Design Centre – Podcast Episode 73
Let's talk about digital identity with Ann Cavoukian, Executive Director of the Global Privacy and Security by Design Centre. In our series opener, Ann Cavoukian discusses Privacy by Design – the 7 foundational principles, the issues that it aims to solve and how Privacy by Design has evolved and is being used in today’s tech products. "You want to prevent the privacy harms from arising, not just resolve them after the fact, you want to prevent them." Dr. Ann Cavoukian is recognised as one of the world’s leading privacy experts. Dr. Cavoukian served an unprecedented three terms as the Information & Privacy Commissioner of Ontario, Canada. There she created Privacy by Design, a framework that seeks to proactively embed privacy into the design specifications of information technologies, networked infrastructure and business practices, thereby achieving the strongest protection possible. In 2010, International Privacy Regulators unanimously passed a Resolution recognising Privacy by Design as an International Standard. Since then, PbD has been translated into 40 languages! In 2018, PbD was included in a sweeping new law in the EU: the General Data Protection Regulation. Dr. Cavoukian is now the Executive Director of the Global Privacy & Security by Design Centre. She is also a Senior Fellow of the Ted Rogers Leadership Centre at Ryerson University, and a Faculty Fellow of the Center for Law, Science & Innovation at the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University.
