Fabian Schäfer, Jeremy Rosen, Felix Wortmann and I teamed up and wrote “Unleashing The Potential of Data Ecosystems: Establishing Digital Trust through Trust-Enhancing Technologies“, which was was presented at ECIS 2023. In the article, we apply the theory of system trust and investigate the potential of technology to strengthen trust in data ecosystems. In particular, we…

I am very much looking forward to the discussion with Katharina Koerner, Patricia Thaine and Saima Fancy. The virtual event is organized and hosted by the IAPP Toronto and Calgary KnowledgeNet Chapters. You can learn more about and register for the…
Continue reading →As a result of discussion at the IAPP’s DPC22, I started to compile an initial list of privacy engineering beginners’ literature. You can find it under “Resources” in the main menu. It’s definitive not an exhaustive list and obviously a very subjective selection and I am more than happy to hear about any publications you…

The series primarily aims at illustrating the goals and functions of privacy engineering and how they can be implemented through different technologies. To inform this discussion, it will (if…

This blog post provides an overview of our study’s results. Background Despite the COVID situation, HICSS ’21 took place at the beginning of January, albeit unfortunately only in a virtual setting and not on Hawaii where it’s usually held….
Continue reading →TL;DR: a transparency-enhancing feature of iOS has revealed data handling practices of a load of app providers and those practices did not sit well with users, even leading to the filing of a class-action lawsuit. In the light of those revelations, I use this blog post to provide a little background on the less-known privacy…

Sadly, due to SARS-CoV-2, the big live demonstration that was to conclude the project had to be canceled. However, you can learn more about the project’s results in this video on youtube. While the…
