Abstract

This chapter considers the challenges and risks arising from the Internet of Value (IoV) on governance and privacy that are apparent with the transfer of trust and risk. It further considers the current governance and privacy issues with the development of new digital services such as blockchain that underpin the IoV, and how these issues need to be addressed.

The DAO was a digital decentralised autonomous organisation, and a form of investor-directed venture capital fund. The DAO had an objective to provide a new decentralised business model for organising both commercial and non-profit (Shermin 2017).

The General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individual citizens of the European Union and the European Economic Area. It also addresses the transfer of personal data outside the EU and EEA areas (European Parliament and the Council 2016).

There are various forms of privacy, ranging from “the right to be left alone”, “control of information about ourselves” (Westin 1968), “the rights and obligations of individuals and organisations with respect to the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of personally identifiable information,” AICPA and CICA (2009) focus on the harms that arise from privacy violations (Solove 2006) and contextual integrity (Nissenbaum 2004).
 
4
Privacy differs from security, in that it relates to handling mechanisms for personal information, although security is one element of that. Security mechanisms, however, focus on the provision of protection mechanisms that include authentication, access controls, availability, confidentiality, integrity, retention, storage, backup, incident response and recovery. Privacy relates to personal information only, whereas security and confidentiality can relate to all information.
