Session Description
Budget-friendly cloud storage has led to an ever-growing abundance of data. Data retention on the backend, and its frontend counterpart, data minimization, are often overlooked aspects of privacy and information governance. This cross‑industry panel brings together leaders from energy, retail, healthcare and outside counsel to analyze requirements/expectations, how data minimization is applied in operational settings, and balancing the competing interests of compliance and operations.
Panelists will discuss:
- Why regulators are increasingly focused on data minimization
- Foundational principles and legal drivers
- Practical barriers, including legacy systems and ingrained data‑collection and retention habits
- Strategies that work: cross‑functional approaches, case studies, and cultural change efforts
Attendees will leave with actionable insights on implementing enhanced minimization and retention practices in organizations of all sizes and maturity levels.
