Synergies

While a lot of work is underway by different groups (e.g., privacy threat modelling, privacy patterns, privacy enhancing technologies), this interest group will serve to create synergies and collaboration, addressing the following needs:

1. Enabling the combination of multiple viewpoints on privacy, integrating

• the consumer’s viewpoint (e.g. see ISO 31700-1’s Documentation, and Webinar),
• the technology realm (e.g., IoT, Artificial intelligence, digital twin),
• the application domains (e.g., health, energy, transport),
• solutions (e.g., privacy controls, privacy enhancing technologies), and
• the product lifecycle (e.g., from inception to end of use/end of support) and data lifecycle (e.g., from collection to deletion of data).

2. Guidance on privacy practices

• at the level of training and awareness creation (e.g., NIST privacy workforce program – IAPP Privacy Engineering)
• at the level of privacy threat assessment (e.g., LINDDUN – Plot4 AI)
• at the level of trustworthiness and compliance (e.g., standards – Exploring ISO Privacy standards)

3. Sharing information on available leading solutions for privacy engineering based on the use of models, i.e., solutions for privacy that correspond to the state of the art (leading) and that have sufficient maturity (available). This can leverage the use of catalogues of patterns for privacy engineering (patterns are abstractions of effectively proven solutions that can be systematically applied to address typical problems under commonly occurring contexts, find more about design patterns).
