Each week we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. Last week we talked about the possibility of Georgia’s legislature passing the strongest state privacy law in the country. Since then, two other states have moved closer to adopting state privacy laws, and a major federal regulator has put down a marker sure to get the attention of publicly traded companies.

Each week we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. This time of year, sports fans have shifted from football to basketball and soon to baseball. But there is another season that starts in January each year – legislative season when about half of the state legislatures are in session to take up the People’s business.

Each week we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. We are nearing the two-year mark for the global pandemic sending most of the US workforce home spend to hours a day on Zoom calls. Which has given rise (finally) to some really bad puns about working from home – most of them are not remotely funny. Get it? Remotely funny…work from home…any way…

Each week we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. This week I was looking through some news items when I came across this headline from the Washington Post: SEC is hopping on the Cybersecurity Bus. I will freely admit that my first thought was “Why does the Southeastern Conference care about cybersecurity?”

Each week we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. This week also happens to be Identity Theft Awareness Week…which follows last month’s Data Privacy Week. Among the reports issued these past two weeks was the ITRC’s own annual data breach report that shows a number of troubling, but not surprising trends, including a dramatic increase in the lack of transparency about data breaches.

Each week we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. As we move further into the new year, we’re getting a better picture of just how bad 2021 was when it comes to cybersecurity – and in ten days, we’ll find out how many data compromises we suffered last year. With report after report, year after year pointing to little or no progress against cybercrimes, it begs a question that Shakespeare raised in Hamlet, giving us today’s episode title, “We know what we are, but know not what we may be.”

Each week we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. This is the first episode of our third season and a lot has happened since we last visited in late December. We are in the midst of another global cyberattack against an obscure, but near-universal software component known as Log4j. The Federal Trade Commission this week warned organizations it will take action if they fail to fix the flaw on a timely basis…similar to the $700M in fines and remediations aimed at Equifax following its 2017 security & data breach.
