A recent ICO’s Press Release (on December, 11th) reveals that:
“At a surveillance conference in Manchester the ICO will say that the breach at HM Revenue and Customs was a watershed and will call for organisations to implement new safeguards to help protect individuals’ privacy. The UK’s first privacy impact assessment handbook will be launched to help organisations address the risks to personal privacy before implementing new initiatives and technologies. By carrying out a privacy impact assessment organisations will also increase public confidence in data collection”
This Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) handbook has now been released and it is available online, here.
