BSidesSLC -- Jerry Smith -- Getting Privacy Into The Conversation

Privacy and Security both share the control space, the question is how are controls implemented to meet regulatory requirements for both control areas. This presentation will deal with issue of privacy and security and the misconception that the two are one in the same and the same controls can be used to meet regulatory requirements for both areas. My perspective is from the healthcare arena and patient perspective with regulations where we deal with the privacy and the security rules. What I am trying to do is get across the recognition that we are talking about an apples and oranges situation and we need to treat the two as very different control perspectives. My focus will be on Privacy and hopefully I can get you to add it to your awareness and get you to understand the differences between it and Information Security.
