Computer Science Chair Looks at Privacy in Digital Space

Associate Professor Dr. Roshanak Roshandel, chair of the Computer Science department, headlined a webinar last week as part of the Bellevue Chamber’s “” series. Dr. Roshandel presented on her knowledge of “Big Data in Private Space” and shared with a virtual audience of around 1,000 ways individuals and organizations can maintain privacy in an increasingly connected and digital world. For instance, did you know that every 60 seconds, a million people log onto Facebook or that 3.7 million queries are processed by Google?

Her advice for a young person with multiple connected devices? “You must take control of your own data by taking time to understand how to set your devices and apps to the privacy preference.”
