4EU+ online seminars on "Security, Privacy, and Data Protection"
Data security and privacy in emerging scenarios
2 December 2021 16:00 – 17:30 CET Link to online seminars: Zoom
Abstract
The rapid advancements in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have been greatly changing our society, with clear societal and economic benefits. Mobile technology, Cloud, Big Data, Internet of things, services and technologies that are becoming more and more pervasive and conveniently accessible, towards to the realization of a smart society. At the heart of this evolution is the ability to collect, analyze, process and share an ever-increasing amount of data, to extract knowledge for offering personalized and advanced services. A major concern, and potential obstacle, towards the full realization of such evolution is represented by security and privacy issues. I will illustrate some security and privacy issues arising in emerging scenarios, focusing on the problem of managing data while guaranteeing protection of data stored or processed by external providers.
