8th Annual Privacy and Security Conference and Exposition
"Identity Management and Information Protection in the Digital World" Can We Meet the Challenge ?
February 15th - 16th, 2007
Victoria Conference Centre, Victoria, British Columbia
Wednesday, February 14, 2007
1:30 - 4:30pm Pre-Conference Privacy and Security Workshops
Delegates may select one of three free pre-conference workshops.

Workshop 1 - Dr. Radia Perlman: Challenges in Network Security Protocols
This tutorial gives a quick overview of the basics of network security, including cryptography, authentication, key distribution, and some web basics. It also talks about what is difficult. The real difficulty isn't the cryptography, but basic system issues, especially considering that people are part of the system. We cover topics such as the functional differences between PKI-based systems and Kerberos-like systems, PKI trust models, and enough cryptography to impress a date.

Workshop 2 - Maximus: Privacy is a Personnel Matter; How to Maximize Your In House Privacy Training
Privacy and Confidentiality On-Line Learning Module:
Join MAXIMUS BC for a demonstration of this on-line training tool, designed for any organization dealing with the collection or management of personal information. During this one hour demonstration, employers will see a new way to provide introductory or repeat privacy training to their staff. Employers will experience how quickly and easily staff can be trained to understand how an organization can protect personal information, what the rules are regarding collecting, using, disclosing and maintaining that information, and how to avoid a privacy breach. Using this module, staff can learn and test themselves about privacy and confidentiality definitions, legislation and various scenarios - all in about 60 minutes.

Workshop 3 - Privacy and Legislation Branch: Information Sharing Agreements: What Every Manager Needs to Know
presented by: Charmaine Lowe and Jason Eamer-Goult
Service providers, policymakers and researchers are increasingly interested in sharing information to enhance and integrate service delivery and to get a more complete picture of service needs and social phenomena. This opens new challenges regarding privacy, secondary use of data, and data security and integrity.

An Information Sharing Agreement (ISA) can be an invaluable tool in governing the flow of information, managing risks to privacy and data security, and ensuring compliance with relevant information management legislation and policy

This interactive workshop will engage participants in the development of an ISA, covering when an ISA should be completed, its purpose, legal authority and key components. The workshop will also enhance participants' knowledge of where an ISA fits into an overall data governance model and how it differs from other governance documents such as research agreements and contracts.
