Abstract

Regulatory compliance in areas such as privacy has become a major challenge for organizations. In large organizations there can be hundreds or thousands of projects that involve personal information. Ensuring that all those projects properly take privacy considerations into account is a complex challenge for accountable privacy management. Accountable privacy management requires that an organization makes sure that all relevant projects are in compliance and that there is evidence and assurance that this actually is the case. To date, there has been no suitable automated, scalable support for accountable privacy management; it is such a tool that the authors describe in this chapter. Specifically, they describe a privacy risk assessment and compliance tool which they are developing and rolling out within a large, global company – called HP Privacy Advisor (HP PA) – and its generalisation and extension. The authors also bring out those security, privacy, risk, and trust-related aspects they have been researching related to this work in particular.
