Carmela Troncoso Panelist at CPDP Conference

IMDEA Software Institute researcher Carmela Troncoso served as an invited panelist at the Computers, Privacy & Data Protection Conference (CPDP) in Brussels, Belgium. CPDP is the worldwide largest conference on Privacy and Data Protection, gathering more than 1000 attendees from diverse sectors such as regulators, policy makers, industry representatives and academic researchers.

Carmela participated in the panel organized by the European Commission, concretely DG Connect (European Commission Directorate General for Communications Networks, Content & Technology), named “Enhancing privacy and security through technological innovation” by giving a talk entitled “Seeing Privacy Enhancing Technologies as Business Enabling Technologies”. In this talk Carmela introduced advances on privacy technologies, such as those developed at the IMDEA Software Institute, that enable the design of ICT systems with the same functionality as those of today but without breaching users’ privacy.
