A System to Handle Privacy Obligations in Enterprises | 2005-10-21 | Hewlett-Packard (HP) |
| Privacy obligations dictate expectations and duties that need to be carried out by enterprises when storing, processing and disclosing personal data. Privacy obligations can be defined by data subjects, by laws and/or enterprises' internal guidelines. They require enterprises to deal with data governance and data lifecycle management activities, including data retention and deletion aspects, notifications, data transformation and execution of complex workflows. The management and enforcement of privacy obligations is a challenging task: it involves legal, organizational, behavioral and technical aspects. It is still a green area open to research. This paper provides a detailed analysis of privacy obligations in an identity management context, within enterprises: it describes their core properties and highlights key requirements.

Marimba and Software License Compliance | 2003-09-25 | BMC Software |
| Software compliance is an ongoing initiative that depends on people, process, and technology. As enterprises continue down the path of IT asset management, remaining compliant with software licensing contracts will save money, increase efficiencies, and improve vendor relations. An effective software compliance and asset management program is critical to ensuring compliance with software license agreements. Enterprises (and their employees) can experience unexpected and paralyzing costs and even criminal penalties for being out of compliance. Marimba's inventory and software management systems offer companies an integrated way to proactively identify software licenses across an enterprise and then "take action" regarding license reconciliation and remediation.

IBM DB2 Anonymous Resolution: Knowledge Discovery Without Knowledge Disclosure | 2005-05-01 | IBM |
| Sharing information about identities (e.g., individuals, employees or customers) is an effective tool for discovering knowledge and increasing the effectiveness and economy of public and private programs and initiatives. Intended or unintended, organizations who violate the public trust risk exposure to legal action as well as severe damage to their reputation and brand. This white paper will examine the potential of a technological breakthrough to reduce trust-based risks and change the way organizations reach a harmonious balance between consumer privacy and information sharing.

Preserving OEM Pre-Activation When Re-Installing Windows XP | 2005-04-20 | Microsoft |
| In order to reduce a significant source of piracy, Microsoft has disabled online activation for COA Keys that are attached to PCs that have been pre-activated by OEMs. This change should have a minimal impact on licensed users who generally do not use their COA Key to activate the software because it has been pre-activated by the OEM. To help minimize the potential impact on licensed users, this whitepaper provides steps licensed end users can take to preserve OEM pre-activation when reinstalling the operating system using any of the four scenarios outlined (sysprep, OOBEinfo, manual and unattended).

Protecting Your Intellectual Property With DRM | 2005-02-15 | LockLizard |
| Implementing a DRM service does not have to be complex or expensive to set up and administer. To a large extent that will depend upon your scale of operation. If you publish a small number of books or documents to a small number of customers you can run a system manually without any difficulty. Obviously if you are publishing several documents every week to hundreds of customers that is more complicated purely from an administrative standpoint. The DRM component need not be so complex.

| Email Security has become a strategic issue for IT executives. The risks of making a mistake are business critical.

Introduction to PKI - Public Key Infrastructure | 2002-05-01 | Knowledge Binder |
| Public Key Infrastructure is a system for supporting digital signatures and
document encryption for an organization. It is fast becoming essential for an effective secure commerce and to fulfill general security and authentication
requirements over non-secure networks (like the Net). The banking services
are the most popular usage of this technology, which is quickly spreading over all the applications that need security to be fully operational. The objective of this document is to briefly describe the general and basic concepts of the PKI to people interested in security and secure commerce (sometimes called S-commerce) but with a low knowledge level about the Internet security. That's why this study starts by introducing some basic security concepts, which are needed to understand the PKI topics. Tags: Privacy Issues, PKI, Digital Signatures, Security Tools |

Data Mining and Privacy: a Conflict in the Making? | 2007-12-01 | Thearling.com |
| Privacy. It?s a loaded issue. In recent years privacy concerns have taken on a more significant role in American society as merchants, insurance companies, and government agencies amass warehouses containing personal data. The concerns that people have over the collection of this data will naturally extend to any analytic capabilities applied to the data. Users of data mining should start thinking about how their use of this technology will be impacted by legal issues related to privacy.
