This story never goes away; in fact it perpetually gets worse.

But at the same time, is a “Pandora’s box” being created, suchthat data that was once confidently secured is now exposed?

Reality or myth? If reality, can the demons inside the box be tamed withoutundermining the anticipated rewards of Big Data? Today’s panelists will debate thesequestions.

Key Take-Aways:g Views on navigating the formal and informal rules, regulations, and legal

precedents regarding consumer privacyg Perspectives on how technology, current and upcoming, can be effectively
