Identity Management Visions Briefing Series -- Ian Glazer, Burton Group

Comments by Ian Glazer, Senior Analyst, Identity and Privacy Strategies, Burton Group.

Data breaches have been in the public eye for almost five years. On the positive side, government entities are standing up new organizations to respond to data breaches and using innovative approaches. Remediation responses to data breaches are also getting smarter and more sophisticated. At the same time, the risks from data breaches are changing. Beyond just identity theft risks, medical data breaches now are focusing the publics attention on privacy compromises. In addition, the widespread adoption of social networking sites has created new types of breach harms. What happens when President Obamas Twitter account gets hacked or if the Facebook account of a public official gets misused? Social Networking accounts are already being hacked to conduct phishing attacks. This event will explore the next generation of response to data breaches as well as emerging challenges.

Topics Discussed: - Implementation of OMB breach guidelines
- How Federal agencies operationalize and internalize responses to data breach threats
- Breach and ID theft reporting
- ID theft and management in social networking platforms
- Combating medical identity theft
