Workshop on Data Surveillance and Privacy Protection
Saturday, June 3, 2006
Harvard University
On June 3, 2006 Harvard University's Center for Research on
Computation and Society will hold a day-long workshop on Data
Surveillance and Privacy Protection.
Data Surveillance is quickly moving from the world of research to the
world of practice. While the media is preoccupied with NSA wiretaps
and the accidental release of names and social security numbers,
information is increasingly being collected, correlated and data-
mined for use by law enforcement, counter-terrorism, and commercial
marketers.
Although there has been significant public attention to the civil
liberties issues of data surveillance over the past few years, there
has been little discussion of the actual techniques that could be
employed in any but the most restricted settings. Likewise, there has
been little discussion of methods and technologies for conducting
data surveillance while respecting privacy and preserving civil
liberties.
Keynote speaker:
Bob Popp, Ph.D., Executive Vice President of Aptima, Inc., and
formerly Deputy of the Information Awareness Office and Total
Information Awareness (TIA) program, Defense Advanced Research
Projects Agency (DARPA).
"A Vision for Countering Terrorism Through Information and Privacy
