Digital Privacy: Designing Trustworthy Systems and Technologies

  • Online

In this course, provided in collaboration with IEEE Digital Privacy, an IEEE Future Directions Initiative, we focus on how to engineer privacy in systems using modern tools and methods. We start with privacy engineering principles and explore various methods to design systems for privacy protection. Next, we discuss requirement management focusing on control mapping and traceability, and address system-level design by examining data flow. Finally, we discuss how the design of algorithms can affect privacy protection.

What you will learn:

  • Review privacy engineering principles
  • Examine threats and mitigation: LINDDUN, PriS
  • Discuss requirement management: Control mapping, traceability, NIST standards, MITRES’ framework
  • Review system-level design focusing on data flow
  • Consider algorithmic design

This course is part of the following course program:
