Malvertising: A Panel Discussion On Threat Assessment, Guidance & Actionable Insights To Bolster Consumer & Marketplace Trust | 9:05 - 9:55 AM
The U.S. Senate report on Online Advertising and Hidden Hazards to Consumer Security and Data Privacy released in 2014 brought to light a little-known issue called "Malvertising." Malvertising is a type of online attack wherein malicious code hidden within an online ad infects a user's computer or device with malware to perpetrate fraud, theft or other illegal activity. It persists today.
Although there is no such thing as perfect privacy or security, there is now a drive to protect consumers and the ad ecosystem from these malicious attacks. Our panel of experts bring to light the current state of the issue, diagnose the challenges posed to industry, consumer safety and brand trust and present solutions industry can take to secure interaction and engagement.

Kickoff Breakfast & Keynote | 7:40 - 8:20 am
Brand Safety and Data Privacy during a Complex and Disruptive Digital Marketplace
Welcome to a world where the charge "fake news" is rampant, and the financing of the fourth estate -- a bulwark of democracy and informed citizenship --- has itself been digitally disrupted. It is nothing less than vital for brands and publishers, and digital advertising platforms - interest-based and otherwise, to assess how to ensure adequate financing of an independent free press while maintaining brand safety standards, both inside and outside "pay walls and data walls." We examine a close look at what's at stake—and how we might best move forward—in an environment where advertising finance is hugely important to diversity in news and opinion. We also examine how privacy protections might be structured to enhance, rather than undermine, this critical aspect of free nations.

Privacy for America: A New Paradigm for Federal Consumer Privacy Protection | 9:25 - 10:00 AM
The time has come for a strong federal privacy law to empower consumers and brands alike in the Information Economy. We will examine a new paradigm for consumer privacy protection in federal policy -- known as Privacy for America. We'll examine how such a proposed data regulation framework could affect American consumers and the data economy. Policy experts and facilitators on these fronts share perspectives on how privacy and security public policy -- and a continuing role for self-regulation -- may affect data-driven brand engagement with consumers in such a new policy construct.
