Session: Privacy-Enhancing Technologies – Unlocking Data Utility with Privacy Protection
In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, organizations face a growing challenge: how to harness the power of data while safeguarding privacy.
Privacy-Enhancing Technologies (PETs) are emerging as the key to balancing data utility and privacy protection. In this session, we will explore how PETs can transform data strategies across industries, ensuring compliance with GDPR, the EU Data Act, and other regulations.
Our discussion will dive into real-world applications of PETs, exploring how methods like differential privacy, homomorphic encryption, and secure multi-party computation enable secure data processing without compromising individual privacy. Moreover, we will also address the operational challenges organizations face when implementing PETs and provide insights into overcoming them.
Key questions will cover how PETs support privacy-by-design, enhance cybersecurity resilience, and influence future technologies such as AI and blockchain. We will also touch on practical steps businesses can take to adopt PETs today, ensuring long-term privacy protection while unlocking data-driven innovation.
Join us for an insightful session on how PETs can reshape the future of data governance, trust, and digital ethics. This discussion will empower companies to stay competitive while respecting the evolving privacy expectations of regulators and customers.
