Security Is from Mars; Privacy Is from Venus

Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Live Session

Privacy and security professionals often work together and have overlapping—and sometimes conflicting—concerns. The best privacy and security programs rely on a strong relationship between the two roles. However, we don't always speak the same language! Join an international fireside chat between a chief privacy officer and a chief information security officer about their roles, their struggles, and strategies to foster collaboration. We will talk about cross-training programs and examples where security and privacy professionals used a common language to solve problems in higher ed.
