It is our great pleasure to present the pre-proceedings of the
5th Annual Privacy Forum (APF), which will take place in
Vienna, Austria, during June 7–8, 2017, organized by the
European Union Agency for Network and Information
Security, the European Commission Directorate General for
Communications Networks, Content and Technology, and
University of Vienna, as host. The pre-proceedings contain 12
reviewed academic papers of AFP2017.
The oldest German speaking university is looking forward to
the new challenges of the knowledge and network society, in
particular to the right to privacy for a free and democratic
society. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was
published in the Official Journal on May 4, 2016 to enter into
force on May 25, 2018. On January 10, 2017, the
Commission has published the proposal for the ePrivacy
Regulation. The basic framework for the implementation of
privacy in electronic services is established but technological
solutions and a viable implementation framework has to be
further developed. As last year, we focus on the implementation
aspects of a sustainable future data protection framework.
APF continues striving to close the gap between
research, policy, and industry in the field of privacy and data
protection. This includes presentations on privacy impact
assessment, data lifecycle, and privacy challenges of new
technologies.
