    We couldn't stop with one episode discussing the Colonial Pipeline incident because the implications and ripple effects are too important. Specifically, the response from the US Government and the hackers in the immediate aftermath of the attack was telling and likely foreshadows what is to come. Enjoy!

  • Ep. 23 Virginia's new privacy law and the coming wave of state privacy law

    Send us Fan Mail

    Let's get nerdy and dive into Virginia's new consumer data protection law! Individual's ability to control how their information is used is coming to a state near you. Virginia is the second in the country, behind California, to enact a stringent privacy law that companies need to understand what is required to and the implications of failing to comply. Now is the time to get ahead of the coming state privacy law wave!

  • Ep. 22 Transatlantic Cybersecurity, Federal Legislation, and Common Threat Actors

    Send us Fan Mail

    This episode dives into how transatlantic cybersecurity cooperation is crucial in defending ourselves in this cyberwar. However, this puts the cart before the horse. Specifically, we need a defined and uniform federal cybersecurity/privacy law to allow companies to understand and comply with one set of obligations. This would enable companies to focus on best practices and defense rather than constantly worrying about the continually evolving and changing cyber/privacy laws. Enjoy, comment, discuss, and feel free to send in questions!

  • Ep. 21 The Problem with "The Name and Shame" Breach Notification Websites

    Send us Fan Mail

    After a data breach or ransomware attack, companies face two means of exposure and embarrassment via public websites: one run by the hackers and one run by the government. 
     
     In this episode, we discuss these name and shame sites' dual nature and a better approach the government should take when informing the public about a company's suffering a data breach.

  • Ep. 20 The critical aspects of data breaches that we don't discuss

    Send us Fan Mail

    Unfortunately, data breaches don't end after the forensic and legal investigation and analysis concludes. At that point, companies have to dig through every document involved, figure out the individuals named and information contained in each, print and mail the notice letters, provide credit monitoring, and potentially staff a call center to handle inquiries. It is a daunting task, but we discuss how to incorporate the necessary firms to streamline the process to get you back to doing what you do best: servicing your clients.

  • Ep. 16 Cyber Attorneys: You Want us on that Wall!

    Send us Fan Mail

    As they say in a “Few Good Men,” Cyber attorneys: the ones you want and need on that wall (granted, I took some liberties with the exact wording of the statement!)! 

    In this episode, we dive into the importance of retaining a cyber attorney before a breach and having the attorney written into your cyber policy. We explain how companies with pre-existing relationships with cyber attorneys are better positioned to respond and mitigate the harms of a data breach effectively. Also, we discuss how a company can get their cyber attorney written into their insurance policy as the approved “breach coach.” Feel free to call (443-381-3586) or email me at [email protected] with questions or comments. Enjoy!
