  • TITLE: Employee-Centered Design of Technical and Organizational Privacy Measures
  • SPEAKER: Jan Tolsdorf, Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences
  • ABSTRACT: The European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires the implementation of Technical and Organizational Measures (TOMs) to reduce the risk of illegitimate processing of personal data. For these measures to be effective, they must be applied correctly by employees who process personal data under the authority of their organization. However, even data processing employees often have limited knowledge of data protection policies and regulations, which increases the likelihood of misconduct and privacy breaches. To lower the likelihood of unintentional privacy breaches, TOMs must be developed with employees’ needs, capabilities, and usability requirements in mind.

    This talk provides insights into a user-centered design study with employees of two public institutions in Germany, with the aim of designing a solution to support data processing employees in handling personal data in a privacy-compliant manner. The presentation covers details on the development process and the evaluations.

15:00h Discussion.
