PETs Prize Challenges & Advancing Privacy-Enhancing Technologies Request for Information (RFI) Published

View As Web Page NIST Cybersecurity and Privacy Program PETs Prize Challenges & Advancing Privacy-Enhancing Technologies Request for Information (RFI) Published Dear Colleagues, We would like to share information about two important initiatives involving privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs).  The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy published the Advancing Privacy-Enhancing Technologies Request for Information (RFI) in the Federal Register on June 9th. As one of the agencies leading the development of a national strategy on privacy-preserving data sharing and analytics, along with associated policy initiatives, we are encouraging comments to help inform the strategy's vision for responsibly harnessing privacy-preserving data sharing and analytics to benefit individuals and society. It will also propose actions which could include research investments, training and education initiatives, and development of standards, guidance, policy, and regulations needed to achieve that vision. Please share with your networks and encourage comments, which are due on July 8th.

This collaboration was first announced at the Summit for Democracy in December 2021. Since then, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, NIST, and the U.S. National Science Foundation have been working with the U.K.'s Center for Data Ethics and Innovation and Innovate U.K. to take the prize challenges forward. The challenges will open to innovators on both sides of the Atlantic this summer. Challenge solutions will be showcased in the second Summit for Democracy, to be convened by President Biden, in early 2023.
