Since 2007, the Health 2.0 Conference has been the leading showcase of cutting-edge innovation transforming the health care system. Health 2.0 brings together the best minds, resources, and technology for compelling panels, discussions and product demonstrations.

Anonos Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Gary LaFever, is a panelist addressing Do You Know Where Your Data Is? Control, Access, and New Security at the Health 2.0 conference at 12:00 p.m. PST on September 18th in San Francisco.

The Health 2.0 website (https://www.h2fallcon.com/santa-clara/2018/schedule) describes the panel as follows: "In recent years, Equifax and Facebook were hit with cybersecurity breaches that sent waves of panic across the globe. Broken promises of privacy are not just exclusive to these large organizations though, many small companies are also at risk, and the time for data security was yesterday. With household names like Apple joining the ranks of Epic in the health data and interoperability game, we may just get it right. In this session, we'll take a look at the companies who are keeping data open and flowing, yet secure against breaches, while pushing interoperability to the next level."

Mr. LaFever's co-panelists include: Lucia Savage, current Chief Privacy & Regulatory Officer at Omada Health and former Chief Privacy Officer at the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT for the US Department of Health & Human Services; and Deven McGraw, current General Counsel and Chief Regulatory Officer at Citizen Corporation and former Deputy Director of Health Information Privacy at the Office for Civil Rights for the US Department of Health & Human Services.

In his presentation, Mr. LaFever will cover the following:

OLD PRIVACY LAWS PROTECT OUTDATED CONCEPTS OF STATIC DATA USE

Older laws like the EU Data Protection Regulation and the US Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) protect static data uses. When data is used for a single purpose, it is required to be protected. However, combining or sharing data to leverage increasing volume, velocity, and variety of data - aka the "3Vs" of Big Data processing - degrades and destroys the efficacy of data protection.

NEW LAWS REQUIRE PROTECTION OF EVOLVING DYNAMIC BIG DATA USE

New laws like the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) and the Brazilian Data Protection Law now require protection for dynamic Big Data use. Complying with the new legal requirements for dynamic technical and organizational safeguards under these laws provides greater protection for individual privacy rights and also enables the maximization of compliant Big Data value.

ANONOS BIGPRIVACY TECHNOLOGY ENABLES DYNAMIC DATA PROTECTION

Anonos patented BigPrivacy technology complies with evolving data protection laws like the GDPR and the CCPA to uniquely enable organizations to:

    --  Achieve Business Objectives by improving internal and external data use,
        data sharing, and data enrichment to optimize processes and develop new
        data-driven offerings needed to capitalize on rapidly changing market
        conditions; and
    --  Satisfy Compliance Requirements by supporting new centralized privacy
        control mandates under evolving global data protection regulations
        (e.g., "pseudonymizing" data under the GDPR, "de-identifying" data under
        the California Consumer Protection Act, and "anonymizing" data under the
        Brazilian Data Protection Law) without requiring disruption to
        decentralized business processes and operations.

Anonos has been actively engaged in research and development to advance the state of the art in data protection, privacy, and security technology since 2012.
