by Matthias Reinwarth
Let us face it, we do not have a choice. The overall context for all our activities and every interaction has been and is being changed without us being asked.

A Iot to Venture, More to GAIN
by Matthias Reinwarth
As social beings, people interact with their environment, whether as citizens of a state, as employees of a company or as contractual partners (customers, insured persons) with a company in the private sector. Even if a large number of such transactions can take place anonymously (coffee to go on the way to the office in the morning does not require identification), proof of identity or the reliable assurance of a particular characteristic ("of legal age," "fully vaccinated") is often indispensable. From a functional and technical point of view, a distinction must be made between...

A First End to the Schrems II Limbo
by Matthias Reinwarth
Writing about legal topics is always a challenge. I am not a lawyer, but as an analyst and advisor, however, I almost inevitably encounter the implications of laws and current case law. Thus, this text describes only a personal assessment and is not intended to be, and should not be used as, legal advice (and in any case KuppingerCole Analysts do not provide legal advice). At the end of the day, any action should be clarified with colleagues properly qualified to do so, including the legal team. The ruling of the European Court of Justice (ECJ), which has gained some notoriety under...

Putting Your First-Line Worker at the Center of Attention
by Matthias Reinwarth
Since the beginning of the Covid-19 crisis, the use of language in public life, in the press, and in everyday life has changed. Terms that were formerly confined to the circles directly affected by them are now much more common. For example, every informed and responsible citizen is now familiar with specific terms from epidemiology and immunology such as “reproduction number” and “herd immunity”. Another term that has risen to prominence since the beginning of the crisis is “first-line worker”. These workers literally work on the front line. They are...

In any case, you probably should read on because this is a trend that is becoming increasingly important in times of growing uncertainty and loss of trust – in contracts, in companies in the supply chain, in "the Internet", and in nation-states.

PEPP-PT: Bridging the Gap Between COVID-19 Pandemic Control and Privacy by Design
by Matthias Reinwarth
The use of modern information technology, in particular mobile data, is seen as a central measure in containing the current pandemic. However, the Corona App, which is used in South Korea to track the chains of infection, uses a variety of data (GPS, surveillance cameras, credit card data) to track the movements of potentially infected people, and does so in complete disregard of the privacy of those affected. Access to personal mobility data, combined with information on actual infections and diseases, holds the promise of providing better insight into the pathways of infection and the...
