PLANO, Texas, Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Huawei Technologies USA has confirmed it will address the critical issue of privacy and information security at Reuters MOMENTUM – the leading global emerging technology conference and executive virtual event which will be held on Wednesday, October 27.

Speaking on behalf of Huawei Technologies USA, Andy Purdy, Chief Security Officer, will explore prevalent consumer and regulatory issues surrounding the right to privacy, how information is used and how it’s protected given the rise of cyberattacks and heightened government regulation.
