A Word from the Sponsors


8:45 a.m. - 9:30 a.m. I Expect to be left alone
This presentation will focus on aspects of Corporate Privacy, including what Corporate Privacy actually means, determining who is responsible for the development of a privacy policy, what can result with ineffective management of the policy and the corporation's culpability when personal and private data is unintentionally shared without authorization. This presentation will also touch on the added complexity to this issue brought about by identity theft, non disclosure agreements and globalization.

9:45 a.m. - 10:15 a.m. Is Your Travel Data Being Mined Without Your Knowledge?
In a world where Internet security, or the lack thereof, can lead to inadvertent sharing of personal information, this presentation will look at vulnerable areas of data security related to transacting travel - whose hands does corporate data pass through and where are the exit ramps along the highway that data travels. The presentation will also consider the question 'Where does the responsibility of data security lie - with the corporation or with suppliers and merchants?' The presenter will also provide guidance on general IT and Internet security, spyware, viruses and protective measures that online consumers can take.
