Mobile devices and applications have taken the world by storm. Millions of consumers are using these devices for everything from conducting financial transactions, accessing health care information and sharing personal experiences over social media. Unfortunately there is still little regard or concern with how mobile platforms and major social networks collect, transmit and store personal and corporate information. This exacerbates existing privacy concerns and the need for new regulations in the age of big data. In this presentation we discuss the latest privacy concerns with this new technology. Topics will include: • All new privacy concerns with mobile application data, geolocation, address book harvesting , third party information sharing and the latest mobile technology such as NFC (Near Field Communication) • A close look at the top 20 mobile applications and how they transmit, store and reuse personal or private information • Comparison of current privacy policies of the major social networks, what they tell you and what they don’t • Ramifications of international and US privacy regulations and how this impacts mobile devices, social networks, you and your business
