6th Annual Data Privacy Conference

Global data protection compliance is an
essential requirement for all multinational
companies particularly those involved in
cross-border data transfers and for
governments, authorities and businesses. This
stems from the almost instantaneous nature of
data sharing resulting from new technology,
software as a service and cloud
computing.

Not only the EU but other countries around
the world increasingly implement legislation
to regulate the roles and responsibilities of
businesses as well as the rights of
individuals in relation to their personal
information. The increase in information
security breaches by both governments and
businesses and subsequent investigations and
crisis management issues increase the focus
on information management practices.

Expert Speakers

We have brought together experts from the
regulators, the lawmakers and the legal
community from the US, the EU, the Middle
East and Asia in order to debate the full
range of issues that make up data protection
compliance. The conference will enable
delegates to hear from experts as well as
debate in open forum a range of issues
including:

· multi-jurisdictional compliance

· outsourcing

· monitoring

· cloud computing

· children's privacy

· data security breach management.
