Privacy through Contextual Integrity: From Theory to Applications
Abstract:

He will discuss CI-based methods for identifying contextual privacy norms and examining how these norms may differ from policies and regulations. Furthermore, Yan will present their recent work on evaluating and designing privacy-preserving systems that respect users’ privacy by ensuring that underlying information flows align with social norms and expectations.
