Online Privacy in a Post-COVID World

I recently gave a talk to the PrivSec Global virtual conference about online privacy after Covid.

The coronavirus pandemic has had seismic effects across society and business as a whole and the challenges it has brought to data protection are huge. The speed of change required and the unpredictable nature of pandemics had made it a once in a lifetime experience for many practitioners. This session highlights the key takeaways and considers what the ‘new normal’ really means in practice.

Some shocking practices and discoveries during the pandemic that deserve to be highlighted so they are not repeated!

Some key slides from my talk below, and even a solution to some of the privacy and identity issues!

Increased risks everywhere!
One popular app that rose to fame during the pandemic had no privacy policy!

How much additional medical data is being recorded… why and for how long…? (note: image on the right is not connected to the email on the left… but it is a real example…)
Absolutely disgraceful that an employer is asking these questions!
Employers have many legal responsibilities!
UN/WHO Guidance
ZKP – sensible privacy-preserving solution

Thanks to all who tuned in live!
