The automatic processing and exchange of personal information is a central part of today's IT landscape, in both government and business contexts. To allow enterprises to control data effectively according to regulations, agreements or privacy policies, design of privacy technologies has to extend beyond user-facing front-ends. Tools have to allow control of the whole privacy value-chain.
The technologies used for privacy control need to be integrated with diverse systems and environments. These environments range from legacy systems to advanced emerging technologies such as service-oriented architectures, web services, and novel web applications and cross-business processes.
This workshop explored a number of technologies that will help to address privacy needs in this context.
