B. Security Workshop: Social Escapes - Where do your kids webscape to?
The web today offers our children endless opportunities for virtual social contact, keeping kids tied to their keyboards, game consoles and other electronic devices, rather than their park playground. Unfortunately, the web playground is populated with unsavoury characters and other threats that can have significant negative impacts which far exceed the dangers of the park playground. In this workshop, we will explore the social networking opportunities that exist and discuss the pros and cons involved as they relate to the iGeneration. From YouTube to Facebook to chat rooms, this workshop promises to invoke some exciting discussions and reveal information which will enlighten and guide both children and parents.

E. The MITRE Corporation with the Information and Privacy Commissioner's Office of Ontario
Presenters: Presenters: A panel of experts will discuss the concept of enterprise privacy enhancing technologies (E-PETs) from public and private sector perspectives.

This session is intended to explore the area of ePETs, which are aimed at supporting privacy within large organizations that must appropriately handle and safeguard large amounts of personally identifiable information (PII) throughout the information life cycle. The dominant focus of traditional PET research and development has been tools to enable data subjects to protect their personal privacy, typically by preventing the collection of PII. There is a growing need, though, for tools that can help data stewards responsibly manage the PII in their possession in accordance with Fair Information Practices.

F. Accenture Workshop
Presenter: Eric Ashdown, Senior Director, Accenture Security Strategy and Risk Management Group

Security in the Mist: Dispelling the Fog around Cloud
Computing in the Cloud is something many organizations are intrigued by, but few know how to determine if it's the right solution for their enterprise. While it offers some compelling economics, it can also expose the organization to more risk. Questions about privacy, compliance and accountability are just some of the topics within the risk ecosystem that need to be considered and addressed when choosing a Cloud vendor. Whether or not you decide to utilize cloud computing, it is highly likely that many of your customers, supply chain providers and partners will. The risk will need to be accounted for and managed even if you do not use this resource directly.

Workshop participants will walk away from this session with a working knowledge of Cloud, its impact on Security and pragmatic tools to both assess the service itself and choose the right solution for your organization. You'll also understand how to manage your extended network of partners and stakeholders who may already be in cloud. Participants will use a case study to examine the risks and rewards of Cloud, and will have an opportunity to share and learn from one another in an open discussion.

When Dr. Ann Cavoukian first coined the term "Privacy by Design" in the 1990s, she envisioned that technology could be enlisted in the protection of privacy, not only its encroachment. She believed that privacy was far more likely to be protected if it was embedded into technology - built directly into its architecture. Dr. Cavoukian is now extending Privacy-Enhancing Technologies (PETs) to "PETS Plus" by combining it with a positive-sum (not zero-sum) paradigm, enabling both privacy and whatever functionality a technology was designed to perform. Hear Dr. Cavoukian explain how PETs Plus can actually be transformative in nature - transforming your privacy problems into privacy solutions.

Panel A: Cloud Computing - Privacy and Security, is there a Silver Lining?

Cloud computing is shifting tasks - and the handling of personal information - away from our personal computers and onto the Internet. From word processing and spreadsheets, to photos and image editing, to our communications, large scale data storage, and entire operating systems - these services are increasingly available anytime, anywhere. But are individuals paying for greater access and convenience with their privacy?

Once this information is located in one or more databases out there "in the clouds", it may be accessed and used in ways that individuals never envisioned or intended, and with little oversight. Governments can dip into this treasure trove with a subpoena; companies can mine this information to build profiles, deliver targeted advertising, and share with others. And with the lengthy data retention periods and ineffective deletion procedures of many companies, users may find it very difficult to remove their data once it is uploaded. This session will explore the opportunities and risks posed by personal computing in the clouds.

Panel B: Deep Packet Inspection - Under the Magnifying Glass

Deep Packet Inspection, or DPI, is a next-generation technology that is capable of inspecting every byte of every packet that passes through the DPI device - packet headers, types of applications, and actual packet content. As a technological solution, DPI is a fundamental tool for network managers - it enables network security and network access control. It also offers a possible tool for authorities or organizations that wish to monitor or restrict particular traffic or content, enabling as it does lawful access compliance, quality of service and DRM enforcement.

If we expand our perspective to incorporate the challenges posed by the renewed copyright legislation, lawful access, behavioral targeting, traffic shaping and the monitoring of civilian communications under the auspices of the national security imperative, then DPI is a technology that can fundamentally alter how Canadians are able to access and profit from information available online. This session will examine some of the fundamental issues raised by the use of DPI technology, including those of accountability, transparency, and democratic control and oversight.

Panel C: Fusion Centres - What Happens When it All Comes Together?

Fusion centers are a rapidly emerging public-private Information Sharing Environment being built to help manage critical infrastructure and terrorism risks, but privacy policies and controls need attention. These centres are bringing together information and intelligence from public, classified and sensitive but unclassified sources.

This session will provide an overview of how the various pieces of this growing information sharing fabric fit together, describe privacy issues associated with this growing information sharing model, and discuss mechanisms used (or in some cases badly needed) by government and industry to identify and manage the privacy risks associated with the use of personal information for critical infrastructure protection.

Panel A: The Chief Privacy Officer: High Expectations and Realities
The appointment of a Chief Privacy Officer, with appropriate support and resources, is widely perceived as an essential tool of privacy risk management for public and private sector organizations in North America. While there are major success stories to date, there are also serious issues of lack of resourcing, inadequate reporting relationships in the hierarchy of any organization, cooptation, and incompetence.

This interactive panel will consist entirely of questions and answers among the panelists about their own experiences as CPOs or with CPOs, with pointed interventions from the floor by a group of Chief Privacy Officers, past and present, who will be in attendance in the front row.

Panel C: Web 2.0/3.0 - The Pros and Cons of the New Network

Web 2.0 has blurred the line between producers and consumers of content and has helped to increase the active participation of many users by transforming the web into a massive collaboration space. The emergence of cloud computing is changing the paradigm between the personal computer and the Web, with the PC or PDA becoming an appliance that accesses virtual applications and data located anywhere on the Web. While Web 2.0 is still evolving, Web 3.0 is appearing bringing with it technologies that have the power to significantly change the way the Internet is used. This new "semantic web" is based on a cognitive decision-making process that emulates they way human beings think and will be able to combine data from multiple sources, adding broader meaning and creating a "net new" knowledge.

These new technologies will bring the potential to significantly and radically improve the capability to deliver services in the enterprise and public sector. With this kind of paradigm shift come greater security and privacy challenges. Data sharing, and the trust that enables it, will become dynamic and the parties involved may not necessarily be known to each other; their data sharing and privacy policies may be different, sometimes even contradicting. This session will explore how we will deal with the challenges of this emerging technology as we strive to take advantage of its capabilities.

Panel C: Data Leakage - Causes, Costs and Avoiding Catastrophes
Although companies are responding to data breaches more effectively, consumers seem to be less forgiving when their personal information is compromised. The bigger problem, however, remains the persistent underlying issue of data security. The easiest way for companies to avoid the costs associated with a data breach is to avoid a breach in the first place; however, incidents of data loss or leakage seem to be on the rise, as are the costs associated with such incidents. This session will present common data loss and leakage scenarios, explore the underlying causes of these incidents, review the costs associated with such data loss and leakage, and compare and contrast some of the solutions currently being used to address the problem.

Panel A: Privacy and the 2010 Olympics

In February 2010, Canada will host the Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, British Columbia. These Games constitute a unique event from a privacy perspective, in that they serve to focus our attention on the range of technological and institutional pressures that come together at this one time, producing extraordinary security challenges but also significant pressures on personal privacy and other civil liberties. This panel will bring together experts from academia, civil society, and government to discuss the privacy and security implications associated with hosting the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games. What security measures are being contemplated for the Games? What is their likely impact on privacy? To what extent have government officials involved in 2010 security taken privacy protection into account? What will be the legacy of the new security and surveillance apparatus being deployed as a result of the Games - in Canada, and locally in Vancouver and Whistler - on the privacy rights of citizens?

Panel B: Network Forensics - Who is Watching You?
Technology in the workplace can be both a blessing and a curse. This topic will explore some of the key challenges facing employers as they address new technologies in the workplace and the use, or misuse, of these technologies by their employees. When a security or privacy breach has occurred, investigators with specialized knowledge and skills are needed. Find out how forensic investigators secure critical digital evidence that may provide the only clues to identify the perpetrators and the methods used. Special measures should be taken when conducting a forensic investigation if the information might become evidence in a court of law. Forensic investigators must ensure that the evidence has been accurately collected and that there is a clear chain of custody from the scene of the crime to the investigator, and ultimately to the court if need be.

Panel C: Cell Phone and PDA Security - A Wake Up Call
Each past year malware and other threats to cell phones and PDAs have turned out to be only a minor concern. However, malware continues to grow steadily and recent trends indicate that a tipping point is approaching that will raise the stakes for protecting these devices. Organizations, if not already doing so, need to begin to turn their attention to the security of cell phones and PDAs. This session will provide provide an overview of the growing security threats and steps that organizations can take to make informed information technology security decisions.

Moderator: Michael Brown, Director of Product Management, BlackBerry Security, RIM
Speakers:

2. Bell - speaker TBA

In the United States major software companies have created online services that enable individuals to post and manage their own health records. Can these companies protect personal health records, avoiding the recent plague of data breaches and losses? Will advertising and health partnerships lower the promised privacy protections? And should individuals really be in control of their own health data - could secrets and out-of-date information cause more harm than good?

In Canada, federal and provincial governments are working to establish electronic health records. What is the difference between the two models and why does it matter to you?

Listen and respond to the latest developments in this important field from the largest and most influential businesses in Web 2.0 services as they explain their online applications, back-end systems, and business models for Personal Health Records management.
