Data Protection in Design

Privacy, Security

Wael Hassan October 12, 2016

Time for a New Vision

Up until now, we have viewed privacy and security on the same sliding scale, through which it appears to be impossible to have one without hurting the other. Envisioning a country where privacy is prioritized over security and surveillance seems absurd. However, it is time that we disrupt this traditional way of thinking.

How? Through Data Protection in Design. By developing and building data protection into the design of private, public, and political systems, citizens would have the ability to express their desires, change the system, and influence government, all the while minimizing the risk to national or public safety. Instead of pitting the forces for privacy and the forces for security against one another, the two forces should be integrated in order to reap the benefits of both.

It is no longer a balance between privacy freedoms and security, but rather about achieving both outcomes in an effective way
