Participation at IRIS Conference.
SuiGenerisData participated and contributed a paper as well as a presentation at the International Legal Informatics Symposium, that took place February 26 – 28, 2015 at University of Salzburg, Austria. Already being in its 18th year, IRIS has been established as the largest and most important academic conference on computers and law in Austria and Central Europe. The leading topic of IRIS2015 is: Cooperation.
Contribution abstract: "Within the validity of the current data protection legislation and the proposed General Data Protection Regulation, an organization which processes personal data, has to give proof that its business processes do not affect people´s personal data in an unacceptable way. To furnish proof of this will be increasingly difficult because of the ever-increasing amount whilst collection, processing and use of personal data in the future economy. The future level of data protection in such cases will therefore increasingly depend on a more structural approach. To solve this problem, this contribution suggests the setting up of a Data Protection Management System (DPMS) based on the principles of an Information Management System (ISMS) and explained in detail by a practical example of an accurate Data Governance."

He will soon be presenting on "Between the poles of copyright enforcement and privacy" and lead an IRIS session as chairman.
Contribution abstract: "Strengthening the enforcement of intellectual property rights in the digital environment must not come at the expense of fundamental rights and freedom of individuals to privacy, data protection and other rights such as the presumption of innocence and effective judicial protection. The aim of this paper will be to bring some light into contents and relationships between several legal initiatives at an international level and try to find a common denominator of their threats to privacy and data protection. The final section draws the attention on achievable solutions."
