New World of Privacy in these Unprecedented Times

In these unprecedented times, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted lives, changing the way we work and communicate with one another. Employees who have never worked remote previously are now expected to do so, but were woefully unprepared as we have seen in numerous social media and news posts about surprise guests in video meetings. There have been other surprises on video meetings as well and Zoom is facing a public backlash and regulator inquiries. Regulators have also been busy with guidance around personal data in the healthcare, education, and financial realms. Join us to hear K Royal, global privacy attorney, provide some insight into the new world of privacy and security during a worldwide health crisis.

This is a FREE Event for all FBI Citizen Academy Graduates.
