Abstract: In the current digital age, data is continually being collected by organizations and governments alike. While the goal is to use this data to derive insight and improve services, the ubiquitous collection and analysis of data creates a threat to privacy. Furthermore, the digitization and centralization of data creates attractive targets for cyber criminals, with security breaches harming both individuals and organizations. In this talk, we discuss the current state of the art in engineering secure and privacy-preserving systems, presenting our recent work on access control configuration and management, synthetic data generation, and privacy-preserving analytics which is crucial to maintaining organizational security and privacy.
