“…Another research paradigm related to web applications is literature focusing on web applications as a means to achieve GDPR-compliance. Romansky and Kirilov, for example, work toward a web-based application to clarify the specific requirements of the GDPR [23]. Along the same lines, Nokhbeh Zaeem et al present PrivacyCheck v3, a publicly available browser extension that summarizes privacy policies with machine learning, addressing key questions related to the GDPR [18].…”

With the growing popularity of web applications, there is a corresponding need to ensure that they comply with relevant regulations and standards, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which mandates strict guidelines for processing personal data within the European Union (EU). In this paper, we leverage machine learning and natural language processing techniques to gather a dataset of web applications to evaluate their GDPR-compliance by scrutinizing their privacy policies. We present an overview of the current state of GDPR compliance among web applications and identify areas that require attention. The results show that, among other things, web applications have a relatively high level of GDPR-compliance, with most requirements being covered at around 80-90%. Furthermore, web applications in the US and India demonstrate higher compliance with GDPR than European web applications. Also, the findings show that a relatively high amount was spent on IT by organizations that did not meet the considered GDPR requirements. In short, this study reveals that there is still work to achieve GDPR compliance, particularly regarding providing clarity about user rights regarding data processing. By highlighting the areas where compliance falls short, our research offers a starting point for enhancing privacy engineering practices for web applications and establishing a more privacy-centric digital landscape.

“…This may be explained by participants suggesting they feel that vendors are not transparent with what data they collect, and what control they have over it. Conversely, it has been argued that since regulations such as GDPR have been brought in, companies have had to become more security conscious, and transparent with the data they collect, making for a safer online experience (Romansky andKirilov, 2018, Zerlang, 2017).…”

Retirement villages are becoming increasingly popular in developed countries largely due to the quality of life and security they can offer those of retirement age. Residents are augmenting their homes with IoT technologies such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets to help them to extend into the online world and stay connected with friends and family. However, older adults are also more at risk of social engineering attacks and their concerns may grow about keeping their personal data secure. To our knowledge, previous literature does not explore in detail the security awareness and preferences of retirement village residents. As a result, research around security related preferences of older adults are investigated. This research leads into the creation of a set of security requirements that may assist security by design for developers. A mixed methods design was used to get user input, incorporating both an online survey and a follow up semi-structured interview. Results lead to a total of fourteen different security requirements based on the user's preferences and literature review. Recommendations for implementing security awareness training within the application are also included.

“…Another application used web-based technology for architectural design and modeling a web-based for protecting natural persons with personal data processing and the free movement of such data. A web-based application is constructed to clarify the specific requirements of the Regulation of the European Parliament and the Council [13]. In terms of the educational sector, web-based technology is exploited for Graduation Research conveniently and improves response speed [14].…”
