CIPL Releases Paper on Privacy-Enhancing and Privacy-Preserving Technologies: Understanding the Role of PETs and PPTs in the Digital Age

On December 12, 2023, the Centre for Information Policy Leadership at Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP (“CIPL”) released a new white paper on Privacy-Enhancing and Privacy-Preserving Technologies: Understanding the Role of PETs and PPTs in the Digital Age.

The paper explores how organizations are approaching PETs, how PETs can advance data protection principles and provides examples of how specific types of PETs work. It also explores potential challenges to the use of PETs and possible solutions to those challenges.

CIPL emphasizes the enormous potential inherent in these technologies to mitigate privacy risks and support innovation and recommends a number of steps to foster further development and adoption of PETs. In particular CIPL calls for policymakers and regulators should to incentivize the use of PETs through more and clear guidance on key legal concepts that impact the use of PETs, and by adopting a pragmatic approach to the application of these concepts.

CIPL’s recommendations towards wider adoption are as follows:
  • Issue regulatory guidance and incentives regarding PETs: Official regulatory guidance addressing PETs in the context of specific legal obligations or concepts (such as anonymization) will incentivize greater investment in PETs.
  • Increase education and awareness about PETs: PET developers and providers need to show tangible evidence of the value of PETs and help policymakers, regulators, and organizations understand how such technologies can facilitate responsible data use.
  • Develop industry standards for PETs: Industry standards would help facilitate interoperability for the use of PETs across jurisdictions and help codify best practices to support technical reliability to foster trust in these technologies.
  • Recognize PETs as a demonstrable element of accountability: PETs complement robust data privacy management programs and should be recognized as an element of organizational accountability.

CIPL Releases Infographic Mapping AI Principles

12/6/2023

On 4 October 2023, the Centre for Information Policy Leadership (CIPL) published Ten Recommendations for Global AI Regulation, which offers guidance for policymakers and regulators seeking to advance the development and deployment of accountable, responsible, and trustworthy AI. CIPL’s paper recommends a risk-based approach to AI regulation that builds on existing laws and standards, such as privacy, consumer protection, intellectual property and anti-discrimination laws, as well as on accountable AI governance practices of organizations. 
A few weeks later, on 30 October 2023, the G7 leaders announced that they had reached agreement on the Hiroshima Process International Guiding Principles for Organizations Developing Advanced AI System, which was first proposed at the G7 Summit in Japan in May 2023 to promote guardrails for advanced AI systems at a global level. 
Also on 30 October 2023, the White House published an Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence, which establishes new standards for AI safety and security. The 36-page Executive Order (EO) is based upon eight guiding principles:  ensure the safety and security of AI systems; promote responsible innovation, competition, and collaboration; support workers through job training and education;  advance equity and civil rights;  ensure consumer protection; protect privacy and civil liberties; attract, retain, and develop public service-oriented AI professionals; and engage with global partners to promote responsible AI deployment. 
The infographics below identify whether and to what extent the G7 Principles and Biden EO align with each of CIPL’s 10 Recommendations. We used the red and orange markers to facilitate at-a-glance comparisons.

In sum, we found that the G7 Principles and the Biden EO largely align with CIPL’s recommendations, as both support a risk-based approach and accountable AI governance practices.
