Affiche The Security of Self

Présentation (en anglais seulement)

Le Centre de recherche en droit, technologie et société de l’Université d’Ottawa et le Partenariat de recherche sur la cybersécurité centrée sur l’humain présentent :

Cybersecurity is commonly explored in terms of the national security and organizational risks of data breaches, and the technical and legal mechanisms that can be used to protect, prevent and redress such breaches. There is another dimension to cybersecurity: the extent to which individual security and dignity can be compromised. This panel will explore the technical and legal dimensions of the security of self, such as technology-facilitated abuse, social media, the sharing culture, and reputational harm.
