As digital technologies evolve and data-driven systems become more embedded in everyday life, protecting personal information has become a pressing challenge. Privacy threat modeling provides a structured, proactive approach to identify and address potential risks early in the software design process—before they compromise users or violate regulations.
This event explores privacy threat modeling in practice, highlighting innovative methods and real-world applications that help organizations embed privacy-by-design. Participants will gain practical insights to anticipate data misuse or exposure, strengthen safeguards, ensure regulatory compliance, and build user trust from the ground up.
