Episode Description
The GDPR is a very broad set of regulations, with 99 Articles that each contain one to many specific requirements related to personal data, and how it must be protected, restrictions on use and sharing, requirements for giving individuals access to their own personal data, and many other rights for the data subjects. This episode focuses on 3 of those many topics where much confusion exists. 1) Were all those email notifications on May 25 really necessary for GDPR compliance? 2) What is considered to be personal data, and in what possible forms? (HINT: It’s not just digital) 3) What types of organizations and people must comply with GDPR? We will also hit upon the additional requirements for data protection within individual countries, the protections for EU citizens as well as EU residents, is government surveillance in the EU subject to GDPR requirements, the growing tsunami of GDPR actions and complaints, and recommendations for GDPR compliance.

There are more information security and privacy threats than ever before. As more technologies emerge, more surveillance tactics are used, and more artificial intelligence systems are deployed, cybersecurity and privacy risks grow exponentially. Rebecca has spent her entire career working to improve information security and privacy protections, by not only raising awareness of the issues within businesses and other types of organizations, but also by raising the awareness of these risks in the public and helping them to understand how to better protect their own personal data, allowing them to take their privacy protections into their own hands. Rebecca offers information about these existing and emerging security and privacy risks and provides fresh insights into the impacts of exploiting these risks, and gives guidance, tips, expert advice and news, with fascinating guests, to help all organizations, and the general public, understand what they need to do to mitigate these risks.
