GRCTV - Privacy and data protection

In Conversation with Ciaran Martin, Founding CEO of the National Cyber Security Centre and now Professor, University of Oxford

During this session Ciaran will discuss the developments of secure technologies both now and in the future. In terms of the now, there will be an analysis of current security infrastructure, recent organised criminality and what some of the greater issues are outside of ransomware. Ciaran’s views on the future will parallel that optimistic view of how technology is changing, but the pessimism that we are in the midst of a New Tech Cold War.

In Conversation with Max Schrems, Author and Renowned Data Protection Activist, “the man who took on Facebook and won”, Chairperson of NOYB

We’re excited to welcome leading data privacy activist Max Schrems following his landmark ‘Schrems II’ case last year. Hear Max’s reflection on the past 3 years of GDPR and what the future holds.

His latest campaign with NOYB targets “cookie banner terror” online. “Frustrating people into clicking ‘okay’ is a clear violation of the GDPR’s principles. Under the law, companies must facilitate users to express their choice and design systems fairly,” Max said.
