2. Privacy Assessment Criteria
http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/p3wg/Privacy+Assessment+Criteria+%28PAC%29
[Review of proposed framework (draft doc circulated on the list via the agenda)
- Colin's suggested framework : Assessment criteria inserted as normative targeting specific jurisdiction
- Myisha and Tom confirm that relying parties should be part of the PAC.
- Tom suggests the document could be framed to be (1) General rules for privacy assessment and then (2) a secondary approach with specific requirements dictated by relevant jurisdictions, or Kantara-specified, and (3) Federal Gov't requirements.
- Susan highlights that requirements change and the group/document needs to consider how to flex with evolving criteria.
- Colin offers that having document maintenance as part of the PAC process, the doc could be updated as a matter of process requisite in the standards creation arena.
Questions:
- Is there a need to further address the FICAM requirements or is the IAWG's document (Add'l Requirements for CSPs: US FPC) sufficient?
- Does Kantara want to have some set of normative requirements tethered to its framework? As it stands, the IAWG's profile is only linked to the US Federal Gov't.
- The tone and intention of the P3's charter / scope was to consider a privacy framework supportive of the US Federal Government and beyond... Joni confirms this is the correct home for these types of questions, considerations and work.
- The group identifies the ARB as the primary audience of the PAC.
- The group thinks it will be key to clarify requirements vs assessement criteria.
- Tom suggests instead of assessing against normative requirements, there could be an approach toward more "neutral assessments". Anna cautions that this could create a "race to the bottom".
- Susan summarizes that the group must determine to what bar the group wishes to draft this privacy guidance---minimal Federal requirements? Or top level privacy require respected as standard-setting within the community.
- Joni suggests that the step-up approach could be most viable: start broad and then refine with more normative criteria. Additionally, she feels the US Federal Government would welcome the work and it might be most productive to come to them with our formulated recommendations.
- The P3 could build its privacy requirements based on its projection of where the law is going.
- ACTION ITEM 20120223-01 Colin will take a stab at a second round of refining the framework of the PAC reflective of the discussion today.
3. Review of IAWG Report Additional Requirements for CSPs: US Federal Privacy Criteria (doc circulated on the agenda via the list).
- How does the work of the P3 harmonize with IAWG's efforts, when the dialogue and work has been done on separate, but parallel tract?
4. Munich F2F
- With no time permitting, the group did not address this topic
