The all-female panel — Behrens will be joined by Tatiana Rice, Future of Privacy Forum; Anna Rudawski, Norton Rose Fulbright; and Veronica Torres, Jumio — is notable in the male-dominated world of tech.

Kuma, which for nearly a decade has helped organizations across sectors shift their data privacy and security risk management from reactive to proactive, announces that Jenn Behrens, Partner and EVP of Privacy and Security, will attend and participate in this week’s “IAPP Privacy. Security. Risk. 2022” in Austin.

Presented by the International Association of Privacy Professionals, the largest and most comprehensive non-profit global information privacy community and resource, the annual conference is a major hub of networking, learning, and unraveling the biggest questions in privacy and technology.

Behrens is one of four privacy experts who will present a panel discussion, “Picture Perfect: Leveraging Biometrics Without Compromising Privacy & Security,” from 9 to 10 a.m. on Friday, October 14. The all-female panel — Behrens will be joined by Tatiana Rice, Future of Privacy Forum; Anna Rudawski, Norton Rose Fulbright; and Veronica Torres, Jumio — is notable in the male-dominated world of tech. Kuma is proud to empower a workforce with 67% female representation and with 58% of employees from diverse backgrounds.

One of Kuma’s most experienced privacy and security experts, Behrens holds three degrees: a bachelor’s in psychology, a master’s in social work, and a Ph.D. in public policy and administration. She began her career in social work before entering the IT, privacy, and security field as a consultant specializing in digital identity. Behrens’ certifications include Fellow of Information Privacy (FIP), Certified Information Privacy Professional/United States (CIPP/US), Certified Information Privacy Manager (CIPM), Certified HIPAA Privacy Security Expert (CHPSE), and Certified Information Privacy Professional/Government (CIPP/G).

“Privacy and security are increasingly intertwined for organizations making risk-based decisions, and biometrics are more and more a part of that landscape,” Behrens said. “This dynamic panel of industry leaders will provide audience members with both strategic and tangible guidance for considering the ethical and legal issues of emerging technologies and solutions that optimize the use of biometric data.”
