We must Be Proactive in our pursuit of Access and Privacy: Commissioner Cavoukian
Summary TORONTO – Ontario’s Information and Privacy Commissioner, Dr. Ann Cavoukian, today issued a challenge for public organizations to “Be Proactive” with access and privacy initiatives, as she released her 2010 Annual Report.

Her call to action follows a year in which more Freedom of Information (FOI) requests were filed with government organizations in Ontario than ever before. In 2010, the Commissioner’s office (IPC) also posted a new record for the number of privacy complaints closed.

The Commissioner’s core concepts of Privacy by Design (PbD) and Access by Design (AbD) provide guiding principles for embedding default privacy and access within processes and technologies from the outset – avoiding many of the inefficiencies, costs and “harm” related to privacy breaches and requests for government-held information.
