VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA—Plurilock CEO Ian Paterson has been invited to appear this week on a panel titled The State of Biometrics and Facial Recognition at the 21st Annual Privacy & Security Conference in Victoria, Canada.
Panelists in the discussion, which takes place on Thursday, February 6th, will discuss the rapid expansion of biometrics applications and deployments across a variety of industries, including financial services, healthcare, law enforcement, human resources, and national defense, amongst others.
In particular, panelists will work to consider and clarify the science, regulation, and privacy issues that have both affected and been affected by real-world biometrics growth in recent years—and the ways in which this growth has shaped concerns about and approaches to security and cybersecurity, in industry and in the public sphere.
