The Workshop implements various recommendations of the
Report of
the IPSE Steering Group under mandate M/289 .
This Report made a number of specific recommendations
for consensus-building within a CEN/ISSS Workshop.
In addition, the Workshop takes into account the
business and security requirements of the data
protection-related aspects of CEN/ISSS WS/eTrust .
The Workshop aims to help organizations comply with
the Data Protection Directive and relevant national
legislation. The Workshop DPP intends to:
- facilitate harmonization of practices,
- develope the understanding and predictability of
detailed or sector practices,
- contribute to resolving ICT technical compliance
issues,
- and encourage consistency of assessment and
oversight.
The Workshop prepares a number of deliverables itself,
but in addition acts as an open discussion forum
concerning those recommendations that are not
specifically adressed to CEN/ISSS. It may make proposals
and address these to the appropriate organizations.
