Privacy Harm and Non-Compliance from a Legal Perspective

In today's data-sharing paradigm, personal data has become a valuable resource that intensifies the risk of unauthorized access and data breach. Increased data mining techniques used to analyze big data have posed significant risks to data security and privacy. Consequently, data breaches are a significant threat to individual privacy. Privacy is a multifaceted concept covering many areas, including the right to access, erasure, and rectify personal data. This paper explores the legal aspects of privacy harm and how they transform into legal action. Privacy harm is the negative impact to an individual as a result of the unauthorized release, gathering, distillation, or expropriation of personal information. Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) emerged as a solution to address data privacy issues and minimize the risk of privacy harm. It is essential to implement privacy enhancement mechanisms to protect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from unlawful use or access. FIPPs (Fair Information Practice Principles), based on the 1973 Code of Fair Information Practice (CFIP), and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), are a collection of widely accepted, influential US codes that agencies use when evaluating information systems, processes, programs, and activities affecting individual privacy. Regulatory compliance places a responsibility on organizations to follow best practices to ensure the protection of individual data privacy rights. This paper will focus on FIPPs, relevance to US state privacy laws, their influence on OECD, and reference to the EU General Data Processing Regulation. (GDPR).

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ЗАБЕЗПЕЧЕННЯ БЕЗПЕКИ ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ ПІДПРИЄМСТВА В УМОВАХ ЦИФРОВОЇ ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЇ ЕКОНОМІКИ

This article is devoted to the features of ensuring the security of business entities in the conditions of digitalization of the economy and digital transformation of society. The authors note that digital transformation has significantly affected all spheres of enterprise activity, and the impact is not always positive, especially considering the human factor. When forming a system for ensuring the security of an enterprises activities, as a rule, it is worth paying attention to the state of the information used, to the degree of protection of individual data. In this aspect, digitalization, on the one hand, allows the use of more modern and effective methods of information protection, and on the other hand, a significant number of opportunities for hackers to use confidential company data appear. Modern business conditions remind us every time of the need to ensure a high level of enterprise security and minimize the risks of the negative impact of the external environment on business functioning. Threats of losses or bankruptcy may be the result of a negative impact. The construction of an effective enterprise security protection system is the main criterion for neutralization or minimization of threats that may have a negative impact on production and economic, transport, sales, and information activities. A fairly competent solution to the mentioned problem is to speed up the digitization of most processes at the enterprise, taking into account the requirements of the market, society, the state of the countrys economy, the political situation, etc. It is the processes of digital transformation that affect all types of economic activity of the enterprise, which in turn is reflected in the level of security and protection system. It is important to take into account the fact that the level of business security affects the competitiveness of the enterprise and its image. The authors analyzed the domestic and foreign experience of business protection and ensuring its security in the conditions of the digital transformation of the economy, and also outlined separate rules, the observance of which will reduce the risks of the influence of negative factors.

Power Industry Big Data Privacy Protection Processing Method Based on Fuzzy Logic and Intelligent Clustering

The power industry is the corporate globe’s backbone, delivering vital energy to industrial, manufacturing, promotional, and residential clients worldwide. Investment has been prompted by the shift of fuel and energy sources, rising environmental laws, and an ageing generating fleet and transmission infrastructure in industrialized nations with mature power systems. The evolving requirement in the power industry is causing several workforce challenges, including massive shifts in skills required, a skills gap for delivering. Performing newer technologies, changes occur when the Industry is experiencing high retirements and challenges recruiting a strengthening workforce. In this paper, Big Data based on the fuzzy logic method has been suggested to protect sensitive information. BD-FLM proposes a large data clustering-based privacy preservation probabilistic model that aims to cause the least disruption while maintaining the greatest amount of privacy. To alter or generalize sensitive data, use a methodology that secures sensitive information after detecting sensitive data clusters. In terms of conventional performance assessment metrics, the model’s privacy protection of individual data in large data with little disruption and effective reconstruction underlines its importance. This paper can automatically cluster based on the power characteristic factor and efficiently identify the power-related aspects of distinct user groups. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed technique outperforms the comparison algorithm regarding prediction accuracy. As a result of anticipating the accurate values, individual privacy is preserved, but data accuracy is improved.

Setting up statistical registers of individuals and dwellings in France: Approach and first steps

In order to rationalize the massive use of administrative data in the production of demographic and social statistics, the French national statistical institute (INSEE) has decided to launch a program to create a system of interconnected registers of individuals, dwellings and households. This program, called RESIL, is based on the mobilization of external data, particularly administrative data, in strict compliance with the conditions for the protection of individual data. Thus, through these registers, INSEE will have a reference universe that will allow: (i) to constitute the sampling frames as well as the calibration margins of household surveys; (ii) to measure the quality of the coverage of sources; and (iii) to match different datasets: surveys with administrative data, administrative data with administrative data in order to provide richer information. To set up this information system, INSEE will draw on international experiences, as it plans to use methodologies already implemented in several national statistical institutes, including: • deterministic and probabilistic matching methods for identifying and comparing different administrative sources. These methods are essential insofar as France does not have a unique and shared identifier; • the sign of life method to define the reference population from the presence of individuals in several input data; • the Dual System Estimation methodology to measure the quality of coverage of the registers using annual population census data (it is a real opportunity to have these annual points of comparison to assess the quality of the registers, especially during the set-up period). This paper will therefore present the stakes and the context, in particular the legal context, of the implementation of these registers, and will then describe the main methodological principles and the proofs of concept planned for its implementation.

Real-world assessment of healthcare provided by the National Health Service: The network of regional Beaver research platforms


 Real-world evidence can provide answers on healthcare utilization and appropriateness, post-marketing drugs safety and comparative effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness profiles of healthcare pathways. Healthcare utilization databases, possibly integrated with drug and disease registries, electronic medical records, survey and cohort data (i.e. real-world data), allow to trace healthcare ‘footprints’ left from beneficiaries of National Health Service.
 Beaver is a research platform available on demand to Italian regions which we developed for computing indicators of healthcare utilization and clinical outcomes, as well as for generating evidence on effectiveness and cost-effectiveness profile. Two distinct solutions may be adopted. One, the so-called Beaver Light front-end allows to automatically compute health indicators of adherence to official guidelines. Two, the so-called Beaver Full front-end involves an eight-step procedure entirely driven by the study protocol.
 In order to fulfil the directives recently issued by the European Parliament and Council and the Italian Authority for the protection of individual data, the platform resides in each region’s infrastructure, so limiting the free movement of electronic health data. Indeed, regional authorities should be responsible for data safety and for allowing data accessibility. The use of standardized and validated algorithms enables to obtain regional estimates that, being obtained by employing regional platforms containing data extracted with standardized procedure, may be compared and possibly summarized by using common meta-analytic techniques.
 In conclusion, the Beaver regional platform is a promising tool which may contribute to stimulate healthcare research in Italy.

Image Anonymization using Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network

Advancement in deep learning requires significantly huge amount of data for training purpose, where protection of individual data plays a key role in data privacy and publication. Recent developments in deep learning demonstarte a huge challenge for traditionally used approch for image anonymization, such as model inversion attack, where adversary repeatedly query the model, inorder to reconstrut the original image from the anonymized image. In order to apply more protection on image anonymization, an approach is presented here to convert the input (raw) image into a new synthetic image by applying optimized noise to the latent space representation (LSR) of the original image. The synthetic image is anonymized by adding well designed noise calculated over the gradient during the learning process, where the resultant image is both realistic and immune to model inversion attack. More presicely, we extend the approach proposed by T. Kim and J. Yang, 2019 by using Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network (DCGAN) in order to make the approach more efficient. Our aim is to improve the efficiency of the model by changing the loss function to achieve optimal privacy in less time and computation. Finally, the proposed approach is demonstrated using a benchmark dataset. The experimental study presents that the proposed method can efficiently convert the input image into another synthetic image which is of high quality as well as immune to model inversion attack.

Self-Disclosure or Burying the Evidence Dilemma: A Legal Review of the Data Breach Rules under the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law

Technology has penetrated every aspect of life and brought security and privacy issues to the forefront of the regulatory landscape. In such a hyper-connected world, security breaches are inevitable. Hence, general legislation in the field of protection of personal data is becoming ubiquitous. The rules are likewise being drafted to ensure the highest degree of privacy and security. The violation of security requirements can have an unprecedented and catastrophic consequence on data controllers. A security incident can compel the data controller to notify a competent data protection authority of a breach and communicate all facts to affected data subjects. Data breach notification is self-disclosure of the data controller about a personal data-related incident regardless of the intentional or negligent character of the event. The underlying aim of this obligation is to prevent or mitigate all adverse effects or damage deriving from a data breach incident. This article maps out the legal framework governing data breach notification under the European Union’s law, in particular General Data Protection Regulation and the Turkish Data Protection Law. This article maintains that strict and burdensome data breach notification rules do not serve the interest of data protection of individuals as data controllers could refrain from notification and bury the pieces of evidence. Such a notification-phobia is a major threat to the overall cybersecurity realm. The article emphasizes that there is a need for balanced rules and adequate accountability tools which would encourage data controllers to report any data breach incidents without hesitation.

State of the Art in Adoption of Contact Tracing Apps and Recommendations Regarding Privacy Protection and Public Health: Systematic Review.

BackgroundDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, contact tracing apps have received a lot of public attention. The ongoing debate highlights the challenges of the adoption of data-driven innovation. We reflect on how to ensure an appropriate level of protection of individual data and how to maximize public health benefits that can be derived from the collected data.ObjectiveThe aim of the study was to analyze available COVID-19 contact tracing apps and verify to what extent public health interests and data privacy standards can be fulfilled simultaneously in the process of the adoption of digital health technologies.MethodsA systematic review of PubMed and MEDLINE databases, as well as grey literature, was performed to identify available contact tracing apps. Two checklists were developed to evaluate (1) the apps’ compliance with data privacy standards and (2) their fulfillment of public health interests. Based on both checklists, a scorecard with a selected set of minimum requirements was created with the goal of estimating whether the balance between the objective of data privacy and public health interests can be achieved in order to ensure the broad adoption of digital technologies.ResultsOverall, 21 contact tracing apps were reviewed. In total, 11 criteria were defined to assess the usefulness of each digital technology for public health interests. The most frequently installed features related to contact alerting and governmental accountability. The least frequently installed feature was the availability of a system of medical or organizational support. Only 1 app out of 21 (5%) provided a threshold for the population coverage needed for the digital solution to be effective. In total, 12 criteria were used to assess the compliance of contact tracing apps with data privacy regulations. Explicit user consent, voluntary use, and anonymization techniques were among the most frequently fulfilled criteria. The least often implemented criteria were provisions of information about personal data breaches and data gathered from children. The balance between standards of data protection and public health benefits was achieved best by the COVIDSafe app and worst by the Alipay Health Code app.ConclusionsContact tracing apps with high levels of compliance with standards of data privacy tend to fulfill public health interests to a limited extent. Simultaneously, digital technologies with a lower level of data privacy protection allow for the collection of more data. Overall, this review shows that a consistent number of apps appear to comply with standards of data privacy, while their usefulness from a public health perspective can still be maximized.

Statistical Disclosure Control Methods for Harmonised Protection of Census Data: a Grid Case

The 2011 Population and Housing Census in the Czech Republic was accompanied by a significant change in the technology used to prepare course of the fieldwork, along with changes in how the data are processed and how the outputs are disseminated. Grids are regular polygon networks that divide the territory of country in a grid-like way/pattern into equally large territorial units, to which aggregate statistical data are assigned. The disadvantage of grids is that these are territorially small units that are often minimally populated. This mainly has implications for the protection of individual data, which is associated with statistical disclosure control (SDC). The research question addressed in this paper is whether data protection (perturbation methods) leads to a change in the characteristics of the file either in terms of statistics of the whole file (i.e. for all grids) or in terms of spatial statistics, which indicate the spatial distribution of the analysed phenomenon. Two possible solutions to the issue of grid data protection are discussed. One comes from the Statistical Office of the European Communities (Eurostat) and the other from Cantabular, which is a product of the Sensible Code Company (SCC) based in Belfast. According to the Cantabular methodology, one variant was processed, while according to the Eurostat methodology, two variants were calculated, which differ by the parameter settings for maximum noise D and the variance of noise V. The results of the descriptive statistics show a difference in absolute differences when Cantabular and Europstat solutions are compared. In the case of other statistics, the results are fully comparable. This paper is devoted to one specific type of census output. The question is to what extent these results are relevant for other types of census outputs. They differ fundamentally in the number of dimensions (grids have only two dimensions). It would therefore be appropriate to use SDC procedures that allow greater flexibility in defining SDC parameters.

Introducing COSMOS: a Web Platform for Multimodal Game-Based Psychological Assessment Geared Towards Open Science Practice

We have established the COgnitive Science Metrics Online Survey (COSMOS) platform that contains a digital psychometrics toolset in the guise of applied games measuring a wide range of cognitive functions. Here, we are outlining this online research endeavor designed for automatized psychometric data collection and scalable assessment: once set up, the low costs and expenditure associated with individual psychometric testing allow substantially increased study cohorts and thus contribute to enhancing study outcome reliability. We are leveraging gamification of the data acquisition method to make the tests suitable for online administration. By putting a strong focus on entertainment and individually tailored feedback, we aim to maximize subjects’ incentives for repeated and continued participation. The objective of measuring repeatedly is obtaining more revealing multitrial average scores and measures from various operationalizations of the same psychological construct instead of relying on single-shot measurements. COSMOS is set up to acquire an automatically and continuously growing dataset that can be used to answer a wide variety of research questions. Following the principles of the open science movement, this data set will also be made accessible to other publicly funded researchers, given that all precautions for individual data protection are fulfilled. We have developed a secure hosting platform and a series of digital gamified testing instruments that can measure theory of mind, attention, working memory, episodic long- and short-term memory, spatial memory, reaction times, eye-hand coordination, impulsivity, humor appreciation, altruism, fairness, strategic thinking, decision-making, and risk-taking behavior. Furthermore, some of the game-based testing instruments also offer the possibility of using classical questionnaire items. A subset of these gamified tests is already implemented in the COSMOS platform, publicly accessible and currently undergoing evaluation and calibration as normative data is being collected. In summary, our approach can be used to accomplish a detailed and reliable psychometric characterization of thousands of individuals to supply various studies with large-scale neurocognitive phenotypes. Our game-based online testing strategy can also guide recruitment for studies as they allow very efficient screening and sample composition. Finally, this setup also allows to evaluate potential cognitive training effects and whether improvements are merely task specific or if generalization effects occur in or even across cognitive domains.

Biometrics, body normalization, and EU border control

The European Union is increasingly using and experimenting biometric technologies for border control. The combination of data proceeding from diverse bodily sources, like iris, fingerprints, and face recognition among others, as well as the potential integration of behavioral markers raise a series of questions concerning individual data protection and privacy rights. Beyond those issues, however, biometrics poses challenges regarding the very definition of the human and the body. The so called “failures to enroll” at capturing biometric data reveal a construction of the “normal” body, while other bodies appear as less technologically compatible. This construction is reproducing assumptions that are deeply engraved in the Eurocentric imaginary, where the non-European other is constructed as being closer to “nature”. At the same time, it reveals the realm towards which contemporary border struggles and the possibility of contestation and resistance are being displaced, namely the very own body.

Public preferences for internet surveillance, data retention and privacy enhancing services: Evidence from a pan-European study

This paper examines public preferences regarding privacy implications of internet surveillance. The study was based on a pan-European survey and included a stated preference discrete choice experiment (SPDCE) involving the choice of an Internet Service Provider (ISP) offering varying levels of storage, access and sharing of internet activity, continuous surveillance and privacy enhancing technologies. The survey obtained 16,463 individual responses across the European Union's 27 member-states1. Respondents expressed highest levels of concern about: Internet facilitated crime, namely using the internet to share and publish child pornography (68.2%); individual data protection and security threats – i.e., personal information not being handled in a legitimate way (62%); computer viruses (61.4%) and finally the theft of financial data or identity (61.4%). Such levels of concern affect trust in the Internet: 27.7% of respondents trusted websites for information exchange and a similar figure, 30.7% reported they trust websites for business transactions. Given this context, following our analysis of preferences, on average, respondents were more likely to choose an ISP that would not store any internet activity, would retain any data for up to 1 month and would not share data with anyone else. Interestingly, respondents did recognise the potential benefit for continuous state-surveillance (by the police), but only under an appropriate accountable legal basis. Also, respondents were in favour of an array of privacy enhancing technologies that would enhance their privacy when using the Internet. Finally, the analysis shows that in some cases, significant differences in preferences across countries and socio-economic characteristics suggest that individual privacy-preferences do vary across cultural/national settings, age, gender and education level.

APPLYING THE RULES ON CROSS-BORDER THREATS TO HEALTH AND THE PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA IN THE EUThe paper concerns a possible conflict between the scope of data protection of individuals, including their medical data, and the necessity of preparing and reacting to serious cross-border health threats at the EU level, for example, to pandemics. The case-study of Mr Andrew Speaker, who was ordered not to leave the US by the US Centre for Disease Prevention and Control because of his TB infection, but was travelling through Europe in 2007, provides an illustration to problematic legal issues. The text presents EU regulatory tools which aim at preventing the spread of infectious diseases and other serious cross-border health threats as provided by Decision 1082/2013 and the relevant provisions ensuring data protection of individuals in this context. The objective of the extensive normative analysis of the current regulatory framework is an attempt at assessment whether the current system of EU rules can offer an effective protection of personal data when the provisions on pandemics’ prevention are applied.

Pseudonymization and impacts of Big (personal/anonymous) Data processing in the transition from the Directive 95/46/EC to the new EU General Data Protection Regulation

In order to carry out the so-called “Big Data analysis”, the collection of personal data seems to be inevitable. The opportunities arising from the analysis of such information need to be balanced with the risks for the data protection of individuals. In this sense, the anonymization technique might be a solution, but it seems to be inappropriate in certain circumstances, among which Big Data processing can be included. In fact, anonymization has a high degree of uncontrollability of the impacts of profiling directed to individual targets whose data has been anonymized. In this sense, pseudonymization can be used both to reduce the risks of reidentification and help data controllers and processors to respect their personal data protection obligations by keeping control over their activities. On the one hand, pseudonymization ensures the capability to reconstruct the processes of identity masking, by allowing re-identification. On the other hand the accountability of the data controller and data processor is guaranteed, thanks to the fact that there will always be a person who can re-identify subjects included in a cluster, acting as a “data keeper”.

The Robustness of EU Financial Crimes Legislation: A Critical Review of the EU and UK Anti-Fraud and Money Laundering Scheme

In this paper we set out to chart the European Union’s (EU) genesis of fighting crime as partly one of establishing the EU as an “Area of Freedom, Security and Justice” (AFSJ) and partly one of facilitating the EU internal market creation and the establishment of a global market place. We provide an overview of the current complexities facing the EU in its current struggles for a reformation and against statist approaches by focusing on the law on financial crimes and its contemporary challanges. When viewed in an historical perspective the EU’s tactic in the fight against financial crimes appears to depart from the classic internal market-based formula of the removal of obstacles for market creation and thereby ventures into the EU criminal law domain with all of its inherent complexities, without an adequately matured legal framework to endorse its policies from within. Second, to the extent that the EU adopts the market theory template in the EU policy area of ‘Freedom, Security and Justice’, there are global elements to the EU’s sanction policies. These features confirm a hybridity in which legal sources are interacting within the AFSJ field. We aim to critically assess the current state of play of the regulation of financial crimes in the contemporary EU. Furthermore, the paper focuses on recent developments in the area of financial crimes by looking at the framework for EU anti-fraud legislation: OLAF, the proposed EU Public prosecutor, the function of Eurojust and the proposed Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the fight against fraud to the Union's financial interests by means of criminal law. Specifically, we discuss the way the Fourth Anti-Money Laundering Directive came about and if, as claimed by the EU itself, it equips the EU with the right legal toolkit for fighting money laundering and terror financing. We also set out to scrutinize the constitutional implications of an increased powers vested in the EU Agencies in this area as powerful players for EU enforcement and we discuss the question of accountability as well as the problem of a human rights deficit in this area. We end however on a happier note by looking at the judiciaries concern to maintain individual data protection and the EU Court of Justice as a guarantee of proportionality and reasonableness in European legislative action.
