Here is more from Chris (from his LinkedIn Profile): The ever increasing focus on privacy rights in conjunction with the mass amounts of personal information being processed by government and private entities is forming a pivotal focus point of which I am excited to be a part. The State of Utah recognizes the right of privacy in relation to personal data that is processed by governmental entities and is committed to safeguarding the privacy rights of the public. As Utah's first Chief Privacy Officer I am excited to use my years of experience in information privacy and security to help create, implement and standardize state agency privacy programs in a way to protects the public's privacy rights while putting a strong emphasis on transparency and accountability.
