In 2011, the International Organization for Standards technical committee on Information Security, Cybersecurity and Privacy Protection developed a privacy framework that was intended to propose common privacy terminology, define the roles of different organizations with respect to privacy, and establish core privacy principles.1  The result was the publication on December 15, 2011, of the ISO/IEC 29100 Privacy Framework.  The framework was last reviewed and updated in 2018.
