Study Notes
Risk Management Process
- An iterative approach consisting of four steps is crucial for effective risk management.
- Privacy impact assessment (PIA) ensures compliance with legal and policy requirements regarding personal information.
- PIA involves evaluating risks related to data collection, maintenance, and alternative handling processes.
Objectives of Privacy Engineering
- Privacy engineering aims to implement organizational privacy policies and system requirements effectively.
- Key objectives include identifying security controls to mitigate risks, prioritizing their application, and ensuring proper resource allocation.
- Continuous monitoring and evaluation of the effectiveness of implemented controls is essential.
Security Risk Assessment
- Defined as the probability of a specific threat exploiting a vulnerability with harmful consequences.
- Includes asset valuation, selection of privacy and security controls, implementation, and ongoing monitoring.
- Privacy requirements stem from various regulations, standards, and stakeholder expectations.
Importance of User Privacy
- Organizations should prioritize user privacy characterized by personal control and freedom of choice.
- Respecting privacy is critical in deciding how to allocate resources and implement information system controls.
Privacy Risk Assessment Goals
- Aims to help executives budget effectively for privacy initiatives and optimize protection levels through proper controls.
- Incorporates functionality and management practices designed to satisfy privacy requirements and prevent unauthorized access to Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
- A primary focus is on mitigating the impact of data breaches.
Privacy Engineering Lifecycle
- Privacy engineering encompasses privacy-related activities during the system development lifecycle.
- Risk assessment should consider assets, threats, vulnerabilities, and existing controls to evaluate impact and likelihood, ultimately determining the overall risk level.
