Abstract

As research in cyber security and privacy advances, privacy initiatives should be disseminated to the broader public. Education of this public is a key tool in conveying the seminal importance of security and privacy in our use of digital technology. This article presents a curriculum that, by targeting the non-engineering public, provides an opportunity for rapid acceptance of the innovative security and privacy research in which we are currently engaged.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Note that the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner offers PbD educational material organized in two sets of slides aimed at introducing the concept to a large audience including “chief privacy officers, engineering instructors, social scientists, and privacy leaders”. See http://www.privacybydesign.ca/index.php/publications/curriculum/.

    The Chinese government last published the number of annual mass incidents in 2005. Anecdotal speculation brings the number to as high as 180,000 riots per year - see Freeman, Will (2010) The Accuracy of China’s mass incidents. Financial Times, March 2.
