This year ANCR WG and 0PN Digital Transparency Lab teamed up to present a report on Canada’s Bill C 27, extending the ANCR Transparency Performance Scheme, with a Canadian Bill C27, WHiSSPR Report, referring to a White Hat iDentity, Surveillance, Security, Privacy Risk Report. With a special Jan 28 podcast with Joni Brennan, Sharon Polsky, Gigi Agassani and myslef (Mark Lizar).
Incredibly, the report is quite short as Bill C27 failed basic digital privacy requirements of a) requiring the identity of the PII Controller Credential for surveillance and b) doesn’t required any records of processing activities.
The report highlights some of the implications of this to the Digital Identity Industry and the security of Canadian data. It delves deeper assessing the integrity of the law in contrast to the international data privacy law framework and standards that are coming into force in 2024 or 2025.
