DirtySecurity Podcast: Anton Grashion: The Private Parts of Security

Does privacy even exist any more? Who has access to you and your data?

The launch of GDPR in Europe, the signing of the Japanese Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI), and the Brazilian Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) started a global shift toward comprehensive data privacy regulations.

Gartner predicts that by the end of 2018, more than 50 percentof companies affected by GDPR will not be in full compliance with the requirements. With just a few weeks left to go in the year, many global organizations still fail to adhere to the regulation’s strict conditions and are instead taking a wait-and-see approach. They mistakenly believe compliance only affects large organizations with deep pockets. Cylance provides needed resources to organizations that don’t have the IT and personnel budgets to meet compliance regulations on their own—from identification to remediation to ongoing prevention.

In this week’s episode of DirtySecurity, Edward Preston talks with Cylance Managing Director of Security Practice Dr Anton Grisham about living in a post-GDPR world. The pressure is on businesses now to respect and protect the privacy of people across the UK and European Union.
