Conference at Col·legi de Periodistes de Catalunya (Rambla de Catalunya 10, Barcelona, June 18, 19:00) by Dr. R. Suppi i Ms. C. Serrano.
The twenty-first century is a time full of changes and opportunities with respect to technology evolution, a situation which in turn leads us to a series of new challenges, problems and difficult situations.
To address this, the debate will deal with privacy and Internet security, identity theft, also speak the Data Protection Act and the right to oblivion and new frontiers of data privacity.
Speakers:
- Cristina Serrano, Professor at Escola de Prevenció i Seguretat Integral (EPSI) of UAB Foundation. de la Fundació UAB. Lawyer at NEOLEGIS Abogados y Consultores.
- Remo Suppi, Professor of Computer Architecture & Operating Systems Departament at UAB and member of HPC4EAS.
Organized by Amics de la UAB
