Brittany Kaiser, Cambridge Analytica whistleblower to keynote at Upcoming Canalys Cybersecurity Forum

by CIO AXIS

Brittany Kaiser is to give a keynote at the inaugural Canalys Cybersecurity Forum (CSF), which will run from 16 to 17 October 2019.

Known for her vital role in exposing the truth behind the Cambridge Analytica scandal, she was recently featured in the Netflix documentary “The Great Hack”. Kaiser is an activist for data rights, and CEO and co-founder of DATA (Data Asset Trade Association), which focuses on the ethical protection of digital rights and assets.

Kaiser’s career spans volunteering for democratic political parties in the US to engaging in human rights projects around the world. She worked for Amnesty International before her experience with Cambridge Analytica, where she trained directly under Alexander Nix as Director of Business Development. Her experience there deepened her belief in the need for people to have much greater rights over the use of their personal data.

In her keynote at the inaugural Canalys Cybersecurity Forum, being held in Barcelona between 16 and 17 October, Kaiser will share her insights and vision for the tech industry to create an ethical and sustainable future.

Kaiser’s new book: “Targeted: The Cambridge Analytica Whistleblower’s Inside Story of How Big Data, Trump and Facebook Broke Democracy” published by Harper Collins, will be launched just days after CSF, on 22 October 2019.
Canalys is an independent analyst company that strives to guide clients on the future of the technology industry and to think beyond the business models of the past.
