Are you ready for Challenge #2? Let’s go.

In Challenge #1, we gathered basic information about your company. This is a simple, but important step, because it helps us clarify our scope. In the past, I’ve been involved in projects where scope was loosely defined, and it presented many challenges mid-way. By defining scope upfront, we are being…Read more

Here is a quick video walkthru on my journey with Challenge #1. I am doing these challenges alongside with you and figured a sample would be helpful, for when you are ready to take this on.

Are you ready to roll up your sleeves? We’re starting “GDPR Challenges”. Think of these as small action steps that will help build momentum in helping your company (or client) comply with GDPR. I LOVE this approach, and is inspired by the following quote:

“It is better to take many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap…Read more

I came across this question on a Facebook Group:

Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice on what happens when a company is acquired.

I will be tying this back to GDPR/CyberSecurity, I promise 😉

My sister bought her own place. It was a big deal and she was super excited. The city required some repairs on the electricity, as some things were no longer up to code. Her inspector recommended the electrician she uses. My sister called him, had him over to take a look, and prepare a…Read more

Tue, 05 Feb 2019 16:28:17 +0000

This weekend, I met with my accountant to do our taxes. I tend to do this on my own, but with starting my own business in 2018, I knew I needed a professional to help me this time around. As we were going down our checklist, I was realizing that there were interesting similarities between how we file our taxes here in the US and GDPR.

When I got started in the security space, I felt very intimidated with IT.

PCI stands for Payment Card Industry. If an organization processes card payments, they need to worry about…Read more

I’m having a hard time sticking with my study plan for the CIPP/E certification. I told myself I would allocate 20 mins a day to slowly chip away at the material. However, it’s been hard to follow-thru. How have you overcome this in the past? Do you have any special tips or techniques that I can try?

Thu, 17 Jan 2019 03:13:31 +0000

Last year, I kept getting the same question: “I don’t know if GDPR applies to my company, how can I determine that?” In my mind, it was fairly straight forward: If your organization holds personal information about a person that lives or is from the EU, it applies. That includes leads, customers, employees, and contractors.

In my mind, it was…Read more
