More on Federal Privacy Officers

In my monthly column for eSecurity Planet, as they like to say in Congress, I "revised and extended" my previously blogged remarks about a federal panel looking into the role of the new federal Chief Privacy Officers.[Update 6/17/05: I heard from Prof. Leslie Ann Reis, an old friend of mine who happens to be a member of the NIST committee that I talked about in my article. Apparently the news report overstated the "skepticism" expressed by the panel. That's a good thing. I'll eagerly await the committee's report to see if it reflects a good understanding of the value of CPOs!]
