ISO
Introduction
The objective of this page is to provide a high-level view of activities related to privacy standards in ISO, in particular in ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27
More info can be found on in the SC27 portal:

Standards and Projects
29100 IS Privacy framework
| Editor | Stefan Weiss |
| Scope | This International Standard provides a framework for defining privacy control requirements related to personally identifiable information within an information and communication technology environment.This International Standard is designed for those individuals who are involved in specifying, procuring, architecting, designing, developing, testing, administering and operating ICT systems. |
| Documentation | Is a free standard : see http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/index.html |

29101 IS Privacy architecture framework
| Editor | Stefan Weiss |
| Scope |
This International Standard describes a privacy architecture framework that
This International Standard is applicable to entities involved in specifying, procuring, architecting, designing, testing, maintaining, administering and operating ICT systems that process PII. It focuses primarily on ICT systems that are designed to interact with PII principals. |

29134 Privacy impact assessment -- Methodology Privacy impact assessment - Guidelines
| Editor | Mathias Reinis |
| Scope |
This Standard establishes guidelines for the conduct of privacy impact assessments that are used for the protection of personally identifiable information (PII). It should be used by organizations that are establishing or operating programs or systems that involve the processing of PII, or that are making significant changes to existing programs or systems. This International Standard also provides guidance on privacy risk treatment options. Privacy Impact Assessments can be conducted at various stages in the life cycle of a programme or systems ranging from the prelaunch phase and decommissioning. In particular, it will provide a framework for privacy safeguarding and specific method for privacy impact assessment. It will be applicable to all types and sizes of organizations, including public and private companies, government entities and not-for-profit organizations and will be relevant to any staff involved in designing or implementing projects which will have an impact on privacy within an organization, including operating data processing systems and services and, where appropriate, external parties supporting such activities. This Standard describes privacy risk assessment as introduced by ISO/IEC 29100:2011. For the basic elements of the privacy framework and the privacy principles, reference is made to ISO/IEC 29100:2011. For principles and guidelines on risk management, reference is made to ISO 31000:2009. |

29151 Code of Practice for PII Protection
| Editor | Heung Youl Youm |
| Scope |
This International Standard establishes commonly accepted control objectives, controls and guidelines for implementing controls, to meet the requirements identified by a risk and impact assessment related to the protection of Personally Identifiable Information (PII). In particular, this International Standard specifies guidelines based on ISO/IEC 27002, taking into consideration the regulatory requirements for processing PII which may be applicable within the context of an organization's information security risk environment(s). This International Standard is applicable to all types and sizes of organizations, including public and private companies, government entities, and not-for-profit organizations, which process PII, as part of their information processing. |

29191 Requirements for partially anonymous, partially unlinkable authentication
| Editor | |
| Scope |
This International Standard defines requirements on relative anonymity with identity escrow based on the model of authentication and authorization using group signature techniques. This document provides guidance to the use of group signatures for data minimization and user convenience. This guideline is applicable in use cases where authentication or authorization is needed. It allows the users to control their anonymity within a group of registered users by choosing designated escrow agents. |
