This is where IAPP (International Association of Privacy Professionals) certifications come into play. Certifications such as CIPP (Certified Information Privacy Professional), CIPM (Certified Information Privacy Manager), AIGP (Artificial Intelligence Governance Professional), and CIPT (Certified Information Privacy Technologist) help professionals design and sustain robust data protection frameworks. The Growing Relevance of IAPP Certifications With the global surge in data privacy regulations, like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and other region-specific laws, organizations now face significant penalties for non-compliance. This environment underscores the demand for professionals who are not only aware of the legal requirements but also skilled in embedding privacy into business operations. IAPP certifications uniquely position individuals to meet these demands, offering structured education tailored to specific roles and challenges in the data protection landscape.

Generative AI is everywhere, including inside many law practices, creating documents, analyzing data, researching, and creating content. But what happens when AI makes a mistake? Who's liable? The implications could be enormous, are we may see a new wave of liability litigation. It's a brave, new world without a lot of legal guardrails.  There are existing, vague, nonspecific “tech” and business practice laws, then there emerging – AI specific – laws that aren't backed by a lot of precedent from the courts. Privacy laws, data usage, intellectual property laws, even state and federal rulings, have created a jigsaw puzzle for lawyers to apply in the AI space.  Guest Graham H. Ryan is an experienced litigator and an author and frequently quoted commentator on tech issues and the emergence of generative AI and its consequences. Ryan says it might help to look back to the “wild west” of the Internet's earliest days and the infamous “Section 230” that has helped decide who's liable for what when it comes to digital content. How far does Section 230 go when AI starts creating content instead of simply searching for it? And when does Congress get involved? Proceed with caution.

Noga is a member of the Women Leading Privacy Advisory Board of the International Association of Privacy Professionals and the IAB Federal Privacy Working Group. In this episode… The emergence of the adtech ecosystem has created a data-as-a-commodity paradigm that has given rise to privacy laws and regulations restricting targeted advertising and cookie usage. To integrate evolving technology tools with adtech privacy laws, what are some strategies to employ? Noga Rosenthal, an expert in adtech privacy law, asserts that alliances should be formed within the adtech industry. When teams learn from and communicate with each other, it helps to create transparency about data collection. Therefore, it becomes instinct to share information, obtain consumer consent or opt-outs, and collaborate with the Interactive Advertising Bureau and National Advertising Initiative. Another helpful source is the use of data clean rooms — a secure environment that enables organizations to merge data from multiple sources in order to analyze and share data while controlling how, where, and when it is used. Join Justin and Jodi Daniels on today's episode of the She Said Privacy/He Said Security Podcast, where they welcome Noga Rosenthal, Chief Privacy Officer and General Counsel at Ampersand to discuss adtech privacy laws. Noga shares strategies for integrating adtech privacy laws with evolving technology tools, explains the significance of data clean rooms, and advises how companies can manage privacy risks concerning AI technologies.

He's a member of the International Association of Privacy Professionals, a thought leader on trending privacy issues, and a frequent contributor to legal publications. In this episode… Geographic information, or location data, is intelligence about the geographical whereabouts of a device, such as a smartphone. Companies like Gravy Analytics use mobile location data to gain insight into individuals' movement patterns to understand market trends and consumer behaviors. The issue with this type of tracking is that sensitive materials like health data become vulnerable. There's also the risk of unsolicited advertising, physical assaults, and other various attacks. So, how do companies like Gravy Analytics use data for the betterment of society without further harming society? Jason Sarfati, head of privacy at Gravy Analytics, explains how they integrate privacy controls into their products. While the company strives to provide accurate sources of usable and trusted data, privacy is at the forefront during development. With its privacy-enhancing technology, the privacy team can identify the collection of location data at sensitive places. Once detected, it's deleted from all systems. In this episode of the She Said Privacy/He Said Security Podcast, Jodi and Justin Daniels interview Jason Sarfati, Chief Privacy Officer and VP of Legal at Gravy Analytics, to discuss location data privacy. Jason talks about Gravy Analytics and the services the company offers, how privacy considerations are included during product development, using location data to identify individuals, and privacy and security best practices for parents of teenagers. 

Can tech companies send data about European Union citizens across the Atlantic? According to a new framework, the answer is yes. Recently, the EU formally adopted a new agreement with the U.S. on data privacy that gives companies the green light to send data back and forth. For years, EU privacy advocates have raised alarms that U.S. intel agencies like the NSA are spying on EU citizens, particularly by tapping the data droves of Big Tech companies like Google and Meta. This framework is the third attempt at a data-sharing framework after past attempts were struck down by a European court after the Edward Snowden revelations revealed U.S. spying practices. Will the third time be the charm?Evan is joined by Caitlin Fennessy, Vice President and Chief Knowledge Officer at the International Association of Privacy Professionals. Prior to joining the IAPP, Caitlin was the Privacy Shield Director at the U.S. International Trade Administration, where she spent ten years working on international privacy and cross-border data flow policy issues.

Consumers are driving a wave of litigation against companies for allegedly sharing details of what videos they watch on their platforms. Will litigation tamp down this activity? What harm is being caused? How will existing laws be interpreted? Are these organizations within their rights? Dozens of organizations -- ranging from the rough-and-tumble NFL to the decidedly less rough-and-tumble NPR -- are among the defendants in nearly 50 proposed class actions which claim Meta Platforms Inc.'s pixel tracking tool facilitated the sharing of personal video consumption data and identities from online platforms to Facebook without user consent. This, the plaintiffs say, violates the federal Video Privacy Protection Act (VPAA) of 1988. The rising number of VPAA cases demonstrates how plaintiff attorneys are creatively applying traditional causes of action to litigate modern privacy issues in the absence of a federal law. An act that far preceded the proliferation of online video streaming, it followed the publication of one-time Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork's Blockbuster video rentals. The titles the judge rented disappointed anyone looking for scandal. They included nothing more salacious thanThe Man Who Knew Too Much  starring Jimmy Stewart and Doris Day. Listen to my interview with someone who knows plenty:   Myriah V. Jaworski, a member at Clark Hill PLC.  Myriah helps me explore the privacy issues raised by these cases and what the future holds for businesses and other parties who handle consumer data.Myriah represents clients in defense of data breach class actions, privacy torts and statutory claims (IRPA/BIPA), pixel tacking and commercial surveillance matters, internet defamation, technology disputes, and cyber subrogation claims. She defends them in response to regulatory inquiries and investigations arising out of data incidents and privacy practices, including before state Attorney General offices, the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Human and Health Services – Office of Civil Rights. Myriah is a Certified Information Privacy Professional, United States (CIPP/US) and a Certified Information Privacy Professional, Europe (CIPP/E) as certified by the International Association of Privacy Professionals. She was also a Trial Attorney with the Department of Justice. She received her JD/MS degree from Syracuse University College of Law.

Meanwhile, data is becoming increasingly complex, and new technologies are emerging daily. So how are companies maintaining compliance in this evolving landscape, and what can you observe from their efforts? According to Caitlin Fennessy, most companies recognize the elevated risks in the privacy landscape, and her organization's governance survey reports a 12% increase in the size of privacy teams. AI poses one of the most significant risks in this space, so more than 50% of businesses have integrated AI governance guidelines with robust privacy programs. Caitlin says that the current regulatory ecosystem impacts these companies' decisions significantly and that you should remain vigilant when sharing sensitive data and compare each state's laws to stay abreast of new developments.  VP and Chief Knowledge Officer at IAPP, Caitlin Fennessy, joins Jodi and Justin Daniels for this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security to talk about how privacy risks inform federal privacy legislation. Caitlin also explains the key takeaways from privacy violation fines, how privacy has evolved, and current industry trends.

The International Association of Privacy Professionals' Europe Data Protection Congress attracted large crowds in Brussels last week, with a plenty of meaty policy and enforcement issues on the table. Irish Data Protection Commission head Helen Dixon suggested that the EU's General Data Protection Regulation's system of cross-border enforcement wasn't “built for speed;” while a trio of Meta Platforms companies — Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram — are being scrutinized by the bloc's national data-protection authorities over privacy concerns. Privacy advocate Max Schrems delighted the audience with some props – a black box and rubber stamp – to criticize a new court set up by the latest EU-US data transfer agreement, which he vowed to challenge. MLex's Brussels-based data-privacy team was able to beat the crowds, follow the ins and outs of the debates and buttonhole key players at the margins of the conference. Our reporters recorded this podcast as the conference wound down.

Adam Stone, Chief Privacy Officer at TrustMAPP, brings his decades of security and privacy knowledge to the Ranch this week to talk about the disciplines of security and privacy.  Where do they intersect?  What makes security professionals and privacy professionals different? And, maybe most important of all: How can these two disciplines work together within an organization without being perceived as useless regulatory headaches? Timecoded Guide: [00:00] Comparing and contrasting security and privacy responsibilities [08:30] Privacy, GRC, and building trust with stakeholders [15:28] Coordinated and cooperative efforts of security and privacy teams [20:57] Security awareness training vs the lack of awareness of privacy [27:26] Drawing the line with privacy laws for security professionals Sponsor Links: Thank you to our sponsor Axonius for bringing this episode to life!

Sign up for a free walk through of the platform at Axonius.com/Get-A-Tour Where do privacy and security intersect? Where don't they intersect?   Privacy professionals need the security professionals within their organization to make privacy work and implement a certain protocol within a privacy policy. Although each group may want to draw division, there needs to be a healthy and divided dose of both privacy and security within a company, and they cannot just be handled by one person tagged in for both. The main reason this shared responsibility of privacy and security under one roof doesn't work is the differences in priorities. While Adam points out that both seek to serve stakeholders, security professionals are protecting property with technology and privacy professionals are protecting individuals with processes. “Information security professionals are in place to protect property. Namely, they are in place to protect the property of their sponsor, usually a corporation…The privacy professional is protecting the individual from the accesses of a corporation, or from a larger entity.”   What does an information security professional need to know about privacy? Within the world of security, privacy regulations and laws are often seen as a headache. However, according to Adam, privacy is misunderstood by many security professionals, who group privacy policies with the same technical protocols they use throughout their work. Privacy is administrative and reliant on how someone behaves within their workplace. Although technology may aid in privacy policies, the steps companies have to go through to maintain privacy for their customers is dependent on individuals and on the ways they are able to enforce strict protective privacy protocols on these individuals. “What security professionals need to understand about privacy is that many, if not most, of the solutions to privacy problems, are not technological. They are process. They are administrative.”   If security awareness training is a norm, why isn't there privacy awareness training?  There are a lot of perceptions about privacy, and Adam admits that many of them are unfortunately negative. Between the headache of privacy law and the lack of privacy awareness within companies and organizations, what are people supposed to think about privacy? In Adam's opinion, the perspective on privacy needs to shift and companies need to better understand that privacy is a customer service concern. Caring about how you market to someone, how you sell your wares, and the impact you have on your customers is a way to build trust with them and to provide them a higher quality of customer service, and all of that falls under the umbrella of privacy. “In my view, [privacy awareness] is awareness of how you are communicating, how you are selling, how you are marketing, that potentially endangers the privacy of the individual.”   How do you keep up with the myriad of privacy laws that are constantly coming out and changing?  Adam has heard from security and privacy professionals alike about the anxiety of changing privacy laws, but his answer to the concern is to point out that someone simply can't keep up with these privacy law changes on their own. Whether relying on the International Association of Privacy Professionals, or IAPP, or calling in the counsel of a legal team or privacy lawyer, there are numerous resources available for privacy and security professionals to learn about privacy laws, study them, and come to the conclusion of where to draw the lines and what decisions to make about privacy policies. “There's a line to be drawn between interpreting and operationalizing statutes and regulations, versus interpreting a given statute or regulation for purposes of defending oneself in court. That is where we really need the expertise and the authority that a lawyer brings to the table.” ------------- Links: Learn more about Adam Stone on LinkedIn and the TrustMAPP website.
