Anonymization for Compliance: Yes, but Use It for Protection and Knowledge, Too!
Sign up for our newsletter to stay up to date with our webinar program.
Anonymization has become a key feature for both public administrations and the enterprise sharing personal data across jurisdictions and for GDPR compliance.
However, the roles of Data Controllers and Data Officers are still unclear for many, as it is the need for efficient anonymization and pseudonymization. There are many advantages to having clear anonymization policies, beyond the simple compliance with GDPR/HIPPA/CCPA/API or LGPD to avoid fines.
The same techniques can be applied to identify, mine and extract knowledge from Big Data, to obfuscate content, or to ensure key entities and people that need [or need not] be mentioned are actually mentioned [or not]. Pseudonymization has been used to create and monetize data safely and feed AI systems.
In this session we will learn...
1. If our organization is a data officer or data controller.
2. How to act accordingly.
3. What benefits anonymisation offers (compliance and beyond).
4. Basic GDPR concepts and how they affect an IT department and data being shared daily from an organization (mails, documents, pptx, etc.).
5. NLP features within anonymisation that offer key knowledge extraction.
