Introduction
The objective of this page is to provide a high-level view of activities related to privacy standards in ISO. It does not cover security standards (but it does cover standards that cover both security and privacy).
Most projects are developed within ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27. More info can be found on in the SC27 portal:
- http://www.jtc1sc27.din.de/cmd?level=tpl-home&languageid=en
- http://www.jtc1sc27.din.de/cmd?level=tpl-bereich&menuid=220707&languageid=en&cmsareaid=220707 (set of slides)
Note that the portal will in general contain more information than this wiki, which focuses mainly on work carried out in ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27/WG5.The convenor is Kai Rannenberg, and the vice convenor is Jan Schallaböck. WG5 regularly publishes a document a standing document (SG1) on WG5 roadmap. It can be found in [1]
Some of the projects are also carried out in ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27/WG4.The convenor is Faud Khan, and the vice convenor is Johann Amsenga
Projects related to consumer protections are carried out within ISO PC317 from 2018 to 2023 and within ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 44 (Consumer protection in the field of privacy by design) since 2024, convened by Jan Schallaböck. This included the development of ISO 31700 (Consumer protection: privacy by design for consumer goods and services).

PWI 27575 Privacy for metaverse frameworks (Started in March 2025)
Leaders |
Hee Bong Choi, Hoon Jae Lee, Antonio Kung, Rusne Juozapaitiene, Vishnu Kanhere, HyunDuk Shin |
Scope |
This PWI aims to analysis a landscape of elements, personal identifiable information (PII), privacy threats, and privacy protection measures in the metaverse framework. The PWI provides a landscape of regulations, industry approaches and standards development in order to protect PII in the metaverse frameworks. It will: • Identify elements of metaverse frameworks; • Outline an architectural framework(s); • Describe key concepts and terminology, including definitions where possible; • Define privacy problems, including PII, threats, environment; and • Suggest NWIP as needed. Additionally, if collaboration with other SCs such as SC 24 is needed, this PWI may suggest joint work to enhance standardization harmonization; |
