A joint paper (PDF) has been released by Canadian Information and Privacy Commissioner Ann Cavoukian and Deloitte & Touche LLP, that provides corporate executives with suggestions for developing strategies for information security and privacy protection.
The paper:
- Describes and illustrates major characteristics, points of difference and areas of overlap between information security and privacy protection;
- Addresses issues and misconceptions that can lead to wasted money, time, effort, conflict and, all too often, inappropriate measures and programs; and
- Recommends and prioritizes business, organizational and technical approaches that are cost-justifiable and can be beneficial in reaching regulatory compliance.
