Web Conference Overview:

Over the past two decades Data Privacy has continued to be assaulted by an unending series of challenges. Today’s challenge involves our current infrastructure; that has been referred to by some as a flat, borderless, social networked cloud computing world. While strategies and technologies are still evolving to handle the current and potential future challenges, we find ourselves deluged with laws.

Given the international nature of the infrastructure it is important to understand the background of some of these laws and the issues a security professional may have when trying to comply with them.
