Ri.09 Information Emergence

 

This risk category refers to the possibility of automatically drawing new, previously unavailable conclusions from various pieces of information. Genetic data offer this possibility because they can be used to obtain information on family relationships, hereditary diseases or genetically determined behaviour patterns. The same applies to biometric data or the IP address. The risk of information emergence has gained relevance through Big Data. From the list in Rec. 75 GDPR, the assessment of personal aspects and the processing of a large amount of personal data fall into this risk category.
