Presentation: "Privacy and Security, Policy and Technology"

Track: Leading & Bleading Edge - Day 2 / Time: Friday 10:20 - 11:10 / Location: Frederik

Suddenly, in the era of Snowden, privacy and security are at the top of the agenda; anyone who deploys an app without worrying about this stuff is asking for trouble.   This talk quickly surveys the policy issues (including the costs and economics), then focuses on the current state of the art; the technology is moving quickly, but some of the best tools are old ones.  It is becoming possible to offer a high degree of privacy at reasonable cost and effort, without your users needing to know anything about the details of authentication or cryptography.  There are particularly interesting developments in the open-source software domain.
