Many parents mistakenly believe that technology companies have built-in safety controls that keep children safe online. In reality, these protections are often inadequate and misleading. From AI chatbots posing as friends to online predators targeting children through gaming platforms and social media, young users, whose brains are still developing, struggle to distinguish the differences between real human interactions and programmed responses. How can parents and caregivers proactively safeguard their children’s digital experiences while fostering healthy tech habits?

Addressing these risks starts with parental oversight and consistent, age-appropriate education and guidance. Devices should be removed from kids’ bedrooms at night to prevent unsupervised use and reduce exposure to online threats. Parents should actively monitor every app, game, and online interaction, ensuring children only engage with people they know in real life. Families should also establish device-free times, like during meals, to encourage face-to-face communication and teach healthy social habits. Savvy Cyber Kids supports these efforts by providing age-appropriate educational resources, including children’s picture books, classroom activities, and digital parenting guides that help families navigate online safety. By focusing on direct education for young children and providing tools for parents and schools, the organization instills foundational privacy and cybersecurity awareness from an early age.

In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels welcome Ben Halpert, Founder of Savvy Cyber Kids, back to the podcast to discuss the growing digital threats facing kids’ today. Ben explains how AI chatbots are being treated as real friends, how social media messaging misleads parents, and why depending on tech companies for protection is risky. He also shares how predators use games and platforms to target kids, and how parental involvement and early education can help build safer digital habits. He shares steps parents can take to monitor and guide their children’s tech use at home, and explains how Savvy Cyber Kids helps by educating young children in schools and providing families with tools to teach online safety.

The rising complexity of cyber threats continues to test how businesses prepare, respond, and recover. Sophisticated threat actors are exploiting these vulnerabilities of private companies and leveraging AI tools to accelerate their attacks. Despite these dangers, many organizations hesitate to involve law enforcement when a cyber event occurs. This hesitation often stems from misconceptions about what law enforcement involvement entails, including fears of losing control over their systems or exposing sensitive company information. As a result, companies may prioritize quickly restoring operations over pursuing retribution from the attackers, leaving critical security gaps unaddressed.

Collaborating with law enforcement doesn’t mean forfeiting control or exposing confidential data unnecessarily. Investigations often reveal repeated issues, including mobile device compromises, missing multifactor authentication, and failing to improve cybersecurity measures after a breach. To be better prepared, companies need to develop and practice incident response plans, ensure leadership remains involved, and build security programs that evolve beyond incident response. And, as threat actors actively use AI to accelerate data aggregation and create convincing deepfakes, companies need to start thinking about how to better detect these threats.

In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels speak with Todd Renner, Senior Managing Director at FTI Consulting, about how organizations are responding to modern cyber threats and where many still fall short. Todd shares why companies hesitate to engage law enforcement, how threat actors are using AI for faster targeting and impersonation, and why many businesses fail to strengthen their cybersecurity programs after a breach. He also discusses why deepfakes are eroding trust and raising new challenges for companies, and he provides practical tips for keeping both organizations and families safe from evolving threats.

From a major privacy summit to a regional AI event, experts across sectors are emphasizing that regulatory scrutiny is intensifying while AI capabilities and risks are accelerating. State privacy regulators are coordinating enforcement efforts, actively monitoring how companies handle privacy rights requests and whether cookie consent platforms work as they should. At the same time, AI tools are advancing rapidly with limited regulatory oversight, raising serious ethical and societal concerns. What practical lessons can businesses take from IAPP’s 2025 Global Privacy Summit and Atlanta’s AI Week to strengthen compliance, reduce risk, and prepare for what’s ahead?

At the 2025 IAPP Global Privacy Summit, a major theme emerged: state privacy regulators are collaborating on enforcement more closely than ever before. When it comes to honoring privacy rights, this collaboration spans early inquiry stages through active enforcement, making it critical for businesses to establish, regularly test, and monitor their privacy rights processes. It also means that companies need to audit cookie consent platforms regularly, ensure compliance with universal opt-out signals like the Global Privacy Control, and align privacy notices with actual practices. Regulatory enforcement advisories and FAQs should be treated as essential readings to stay current on regulators' priorities. Likewise at the inaugural Atlanta AI Week, national security and ethical concerns came into sharper focus. Despite promises of localized data storage, some social media platforms and apps continue to raise alarms over foreign governments’ potential access to personal data. While experts encourage experimentation and practical application of AI tools, they are also urging businesses to remain vigilant to threats such as deepfakes, AI-driven misinformation, and the broader societal implications of unchecked AI development.

In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi Daniels, Founder and CEO of Red Clover Advisors, and Justin Daniels, Shareholder and Corporate Attorney at Baker Donelson, share their top takeaways from the IAPP Global Privacy Summit 2025 and the inaugural Atlanta AI Week. Jodi highlights practical steps for improving privacy rights request handling, the importance of regularly testing cookie consent management platforms, and ensuring published privacy notices reflect actual practices. Justin discusses the ethical challenges surrounding AI's rapid growth, the national security risks tied to social media platforms, and the dangers posed by deepfake technology. Together, Jodi and Justin emphasize the importance of continuous education, collaboration, and proactive action to prepare businesses for the future of privacy and AI.

As data privacy continues to evolve, privacy professionals need to stay sharp by reinforcing their foundational knowledge and refining their practical skills. It’s no longer enough to just understand and comply with regulatory requirements. Today’s privacy work also demands cultural awareness, ethical judgment, and the ability to apply privacy principles to real-world settings. How can privacy professionals expand their expertise and remain effective in an ever-changing environment?

Privacy professionals can’t rely on legal knowledge alone to stay ahead. Privacy frameworks like the Fair Information Practice Principles (FIPPs), OECD Guidelines, and others offer principles that help privacy pros navigate shifting global privacy laws and emerging technologies. Privacy pros should also deepen their cultural literacy, recognizing the societal and political drivers behind laws like GDPR to align privacy practices with public expectations. Hands-on operational experience is just as important. Conducting privacy impact assessments (PIAs), responding to data subject access requests (DSARs), and developing clear communications are just a few ways privacy pros can turn knowledge into practical applications.

In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels talk with Peter Kosmala, Course Developer and Instructor at York University, about how privacy professionals can future-proof their skills. Peter discusses the value of foundational privacy frameworks, the tension between personalization and privacy, the limits of law-based compliance, and the growing need for ethical data use. He also explains the importance of privacy certifications, hands-on learning, and principled thinking to build programs that work in the real world.

Amanda Moore is a seasoned leader with extensive experience in privacy strategy, technology, and operations. She currently serves as the Senior Director of Privacy at DIRECTV, where she oversees the company’s privacy program with respect to technology and operations. Prior to her role at DIRECTV, she held pivotal positions at CVS Health and AT&T leading technical and business teams. Her career started in information technology but shifted to privacy before the onset of CCPA. Amanda holds the CIPM certifications and is a OneTrust Fellow of Privacy Technology.

Many organizations invest in privacy technology expecting it to deliver instant compliance, only to find that it fails to integrate with existing tools or processes. Adoption often lags when internal teams see privacy as a barrier or when tools are implemented without clearly defined goals. Choosing privacy technology before businesses understand the specific problem they’re meant to solve leads to confusion, inefficiency, and low adoption.

One of the most effective ways to boost technology adoption is to start with a clear understanding of business processes and goals before introducing new privacy tech. Successful privacy programs start by mapping business processes and making small, non-disruptive backend adjustments that minimize disruption. Additionally, building internal awareness through roadshows, clear communication, and simplified privacy impact assessments helps shift perceptions and encourages teams to view privacy as a business enabler.

In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels speak with Amanda Moore, Senior Director of Privacy at DIRECTV, about integrating privacy technology into business operations. Amanda highlights how strong internal relationships help position privacy as a business enabler, why reframing communication to various business executives enhances support for privacy initiatives, and how measuring privacy program maturity with the use of technology provides more insight than surface-level metrics. She also discusses methods to increase adoption through internal awareness campaigns and simplified assessments, and the long-term value of reputation-building within organizations.

Brian Mullin is the CEO and Co-founder of Karlsgate. He is also a creator of Karlsgate Identity Exchange, a groundbreaking solution for zero-trust remote data matching and integration. Brian has over 30 years of experience in data privacy and security with leadership roles at companies across the data-driven marketing ecosystem.

Data is often viewed as binary and categorized as either public or private with the assumption that private data is secure and tightly protected. Companies often rely on firewalls, contracts, and policies to secure data, yet these measures don’t guarantee control once data is shared across multiple platforms and with third-party vendors. Every time data changes hands, the risk of exposure, misuse, or compliance failure increases. So, how can organizations securely share data while minimizing risks and protecting individual identities?

To address this challenge, companies can treat sensitive information as a “protected data” category where data is only shared under specific, controlled, and technology-enforced conditions. Rather than trusting third-party data clean rooms to match and analyze data sets, businesses can use Karlsgate’s peer-to-peer privacy-enhancing technology to prevent identity exposure altogether. This allows companies to reduce risk while eliminating the need for persistent IDs like cookies to ensure data set matching occurs without revealing personal information.

In this episode of the She Said Privacy/He Said Security Podcast, Jodi and Justin Daniels talk with Brian Mullin, CEO and Co-founder of Karlsgate, about how companies can rethink data sharing with privacy-first tools. Brian discusses the dangers of persistent identifiers and why protected pipelines offer a more scalable and secure solution than traditional data clean rooms. Brian also shares how Karlsgate enables secure data set matching between organizations while eliminating the need to hand over control and explains how organizations can adopt these technologies quickly without adding friction to existing workflows.
