Privacy by Design and the New Protection Goals

“Privacy by Design“ congregates seven principles promising a modern proactive approach to data protection and privacy with a global perspective. The “New Protection Goals“ claim no less than to turn data protection into a modern, proactive and operational tool by introducing six elementary protection goals which are related to each other and which are meant to be applicable universally. Whereas Privacy by Design is supported by ten Global Privacy Standards principles feeding practical needs, the New Protection Goals fall into line with the approved methods of risk analysis and protective measures such as baseline protection. Both paradigms put emphasis on privacy enhancing technologies. The authors argue to merge both approaches into a comprehensive universal concept.
